Samoan Siapo

YAY it's finally finished!! Here's a picture of our completed class siapo and a description of how we made it and what it means.

First we got an A4 piece of paper.
Then we chose our design and copied it in pencil. I chose the fishing net because i like going fishing.    
Next we coloured in the black bits with pencil.
When we had finished that we got black paint and went over the pencil lines with the black paint.
Next Mr. Baylis got some hot water and put some normal tea bags in the water.
Then we got the tea bags and dabbed it on the paper until the paper was all covered with tea.
Then we let them dry and taped them all together. 
 When we had finished we had a big siapo.

Today we started discussing our theme topic - The Big Event. We discussed how the Rugby World Cup is bringing thousands of visitors from around the world to our country, each bringing with them their own culture.

We then discussed exactly what a culture is and here is our initial thoughts:



We then tried to define what culture is and this is what Room 1 came up with:

A group of people that follow the same rules and have similar attitudes and behaviours.
