in the first week of steam we had to get into groups with our classes, for example all of the tūī 5 people in the steam group had to be in a group.I got into a group with Aarya, Samrita, Nathuli, Jacob, Amirah and Maryam.We decided that me, Aarya and Samrita will work in a group and Jacob, Nathuli, Amirah and Maryam will work in a group.We all had one big paper and had to make a poster about Kaitiakitanga, how we can stop ruining the world and stuff we should stop doing.Aarya was writing everything because she has very good handwriting, I searched things up and Samrita made the paper all colourful and pretty.The first thing we wrote was our meaning which was : Kaitiakitanga means guardians of the land.Protecting the Earth & animals that live inside.Giving attention to animals, birds, insects and fish including fresh-water fish.The dictionary meaning was : The dictionary meaning of Kaitiakitanga is a New Zealand Māori term used for the concept of guardianship of the sky, the sea and the land.We wrote three things of how we can protect the land, protect the water and protect the animals.For how we can protect the land we wrote : 1)Volunteer to help clean up in your community.2) Don’t leave your rubbish on the groundand 3) is to Recycle items.Now for how we can protect the water : 1) Clean-up the ocean, 2) Don’t leave your rubbish by the ocean and 3) is to Waste less water.Finally for how we can protect the animals is : 1) Don’t destroy their homes, 2) Don’t kill the animal’s and 3) is to Avoid fishing and hunting animals.
