Making Taonga

As part of our inquiry the children in Room 11 have been interested in learning about Greenstone Taonga.  Below are our inquiry questions.

We then went on and learnt about Maori Rocks in History and where they were found.

Also we read a story about Finding Pounamu

Then Mrs Massey found a journal article about Making our Own Taonga.


31 March
Today we got to make our own Taonga pendent...





Here are our taonga ready to bake in the oven.
