Task Description: For this activity we have touched on the Tuvalu Language Week, and above this description is a little about the Tuvaluan Language and theme. Tuvalu has some pricinples that guard their theme for the year and I chosen one, also making a poster and explaining what I think the principle means. But also finding the meaning for 'principle' and in this poster I have the added the poster theme too.
Tuvalu Language Week! is this week and the theme is "Fakatili Te Kiloga Fou" which means "Navigating the changing environment". Tuvalu Auckland Community Trust, Taumatuas, parents and families are knowledge holders and play important roles in keeping the Tuvaluan language and culture traditions alive.
These are guided by principles such as:
Olaga kau fakatasi ko te maopoopo ko te malosi
(Unity is togetherness and strength)
Olaga fiafia o sala te poto sala se lumanai manuia
(Wisdom is the path to happiness and a bright future)
Olaga Fealofani
(Live in peace with others)
E see ko pati ako faiga
(Actions speak louder than words).

Spring Learning Journey (SLJ) : This school holidays ours teachers have made us a Spring Learning Journey, which means we post an activity each day that is put down for us. We learn and create each task that is given and I will be posting from Monday-Friday this week. Stay tuned for all the cool and amazing things I post on my blog for the Spring Learning Journey.
Task Description: For this activity ( No. 1) we have got given to design, create, or draw our own book cover of our favourite book. So then we can draw anything that could match our favourite book and a phrase in my class is 'Don't judge a book by it's cover' because most people just pick books by the cover. Whether it's cool or fun to read to don't judge it because what is written inside may not be as fun to read than the cover. Then we post it to our blog and I hope you enjoy what I have drawn for my favourite book which is 'Amulet Fire Light'.
