The above screencastify is the fifth task for this week of the Summer Learning Journey that I have completed today. For this Step it up activity I started by thinking what changes I can add in the game. Usually the game consists of two instructions which are maui meaning left and matau meaning right. I thought of adding patu rango meaning jump, and patu rango maui and matau meaning jump to the left or right respectively. I could think of more instruction but I thought it would make the game a little too complicated so I thought of leaving it simple. I loved completing this task because I could use my creative skills and create a modified version of the game and also shared it with my readers. I very excited to do other tasks for the Summer Learning Journey.
Kia ora Sakshi,
ReplyDeleteGreat work adding your own fun rules to the game of poi rakau! I agree with you - adding just a couple of rules keeps the game nice and simple without making it too complicated to play. I think it would be really fun to jump to the left or the right during this game and it would add an excellent fitness challenge! I am going to try your version...as soon as I get enough players to join me.
The te reo Māori word that I know for jump is peke. Have you heard the word peke before?
For all the effort you have put into both the kickstart and stepping it up parts of this activity, I am definitely assigning you well-deserved bonus points.
Give yourself a pat on the back for being a SLJ superstar!
