Summer Learning Journey Day 3 Activity 1:The 
Waiata-A song in your heart

Greetings 

&

welcome back to my blog.

In this activity it would be day 3 activity 1 and in this activity it will be talking about a waiata and about a song in your heart like in the past the Maoris were often to be use as a song that could share information on communicate emotions.Did you know that Waiata the name was given to a traditional moari which is Kia Paimarie. 

So my favourite traditional song is 

Teu Hiki A Hoku Le'o.The only reason why is because how last year my clost aunt had died and what we did was sing this beautiful song for her.

Read this information and then write down 3 interesting facts that we learnt about waiata.

Here is 3 interesting facts that I have learnt

1. There is the heading of laments (waiata tangi) and love songs (waiata aroha).
2. they intimately connect with singing their ancient love songs and laments
3. the melodies move within a small range varying from a second to a fourth

   

   My lovely
   Auntie Fonoga.

My favourite Waiata song is 
He Hōnore because how it reminds
me of how the year 7 and 8's use 

to sing this song at assembly to farewell teachers from our school in 2017 which

 had been the best year of school for me.
