The Legend Of Telesa

 

One of the most well known is Telesa the aiku goddess of Lepea in Upolu. In Samoa, your hair, flowing, waving and weaving, becomes alive with magic in the moonlight.... Beware the power of your hair and beware the flaunting of it, lest the fury of the Teine Sa is invoked.

Taking screenshots can be very helpful with our learning because as you take your screenshot you can label it and write about it. I really like taking screenshots and this activity was amazing.

 For my second challenge from Kawa of Care. This is what I had to do!

Kawa Of Care- Challenge 1

Today I thought to start from the very first challenge from Kawa of Care. 

The first task I had to do was to fill in the gaps of the missing word that makes sense to the sentence.

My secound task was the same thing as the first one but was talking about how to hold my chromebook, what should be closed and many things like that

My last task was that I had to put a photo of myself in the middle and now I am a Kawa of Care expert!

Hinemoa & Tutanekai

 Here I have a task about a forbidden love story about Hinemoa & Tutanekai. This story was great to listen to and espcially interesting. This forbidden love story had me thinking that it's not all about being rich or famous but to have a right heart for others. As like Hinemoa wasn't charmed at all from the chosen rangatira from the other tribe but had eyes on one which was Tutanekai but the problem was that he was not at high birth. Hinemoa didn't care but she fell in love with him anyways. 

I don't wanna ruin the story here but enjoy!
