Samoa Body Parts

This week for inquiry we had to make a picture of our selves and then label it on how to say it in our culture.This was a little hard because I couldn't tell what it meant in Samoan. I have drawled myself in school uniform and also used lines to what it means.The language I have used is Samoan.

Lovely Person

Nice Work

List 5 Words that also mean Nice:

• Kind
• Pleasant

The Choices is As long as a string-What literary devices
have been used?An expression or an unknown size of string

What Is the Joke on the last line?

The joke is not to use the word nice but the kids have

Never Use the word Lovely our teacher said.

It doesn't Mean a thing!

Try… adorable,nice,sweet,
