Hello Avalon, my name is Billy and I am from the Summer Learning Journey programme. I'm glad to see that you have already begun completing and posting activities. Well done!
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your thoughts on whether or not you would like to give flax weaving a go. I am impressed to read that you are willing and open minded. I think it would required a lot of time, patience and skill.
What sort of things would you like to create?
Thanks, Billy.
Thank you for the feed back billy
ReplyDeleteHello Avalon! It's great to see you posting on the Summer Learning Journey. I would also like to try weaving with flax once too. I can be all sorts of creative with what I weave which makes it sound fun. I like your reasoning for wanting to try it as well. Have you ever had experience trying it before? Keep it up!
ReplyDeleteHello Avalon,
ReplyDeleteGreat to see you posting!. I like how you are taking risk by trying flax weaving because I know it is hard. What would you like to learn if you were to weave today? Keep it up!
Hello Avalon,

Greetings Avalon,
ReplyDeleteI have decided to comment on your blog. Flax weaving is mostly In Pasfic cultures. I would love to flax wave because that would be really cool to hand made our own things like fans. That's great you enjoy learning about the Maori culture.
Keep it up Avalon!

Hello Avalon,
ReplyDeleteThanks for completing this task and thanks a lot for sharing your advice and the information you have done. I have enjoyed every blog post you have done. I also like how you choose to do yes you would like to do weaving. I choose not to because it is confusing and hard to weave.
Have you ever weaved?

Hi Avalon...great to see you blogging on the SLJ. There's still some time to complete the activities before school begins - how many more can you get done? Keep up the great work.
ReplyDeleteHello Avalon,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Araura and I am from Wesley Primary School.
First of all congratulations on your amazing post. I would maybe try weaving to but I heard that the ends of the flax is sharp and I might get cut.
I love how you added a picture, #GoodIdea
Anyway keep up the good work.
Blog you later Bye 😀
Hi Avalon
ReplyDeleteI have just returned from my holiday and have had a look through your SLJ activities. What a fantastic amount of work you have done! Which was your favourite activity? I love that you chose that you would like to do weaving. I love weaving the harakeke and will make sure we do this as a practical activity when we learn about writing a procedural text this year. Great work :)
