Samoa

Hello All,
We have been learning a lot about Samoa. Samoa is an island in the South Pacific Ocean made up of two islands called Savai'i and Upolu. There is only one city in Samoa called Apia which is the main capital city.

In Samoa, they have hair cutting and ear piercing ceremonies. For hair cutting, they get a long tail of hair which is tied up and someone cuts it up and they give money in return.  The guests get food in return to eat and to take home like meat and talo.

Poetry in Room 26

Room 26 wrote some Awesome Sense Poems on Popcorn and Fruits in Week 11.  We used our five Sense Senses when writing the poems.

Sense Poem on Apples by Sani
Apple like a read and green round moon.
Apples feel like a hard rock.
Apple sounds like a chewing gum in my mouth.
Apples smell like juice.
Apples taste sweet and divine, but it is very crunchy.


Sense Poem on Popcorn by Alexis
Popcorn
Popcorn looks like little, yellow ducks.
Popcorn feels squishy.
Popcorn sounds crunchy in my mouth.
It smells like buttery mustard.
It tastes sugary with icing sugar.
