How Cultures and Traditions Expressed through dance ?

During Week 1, we had a variety of learning experiences to tune us into ideas about
our new big question for this term -how are cultures and traditions expressed through
dance? We had a performance for Boys High Pacifica group, a performance from St Peters Pacifica group and a drumming workshop. I enjoyed St peters dancing the most
because I got to dance in front of my freinds. Something new I learnt was new ways of dancing in different culture.

Our school is named after St James because the man who built our school was called James. St james showed he followed Jesus because he preached about Jesus and God and
he stood up for himself. An interesting fact about St James is that him and his brother John were called the thunder brothers.

WALT: Present the information I have learnt during my inquiry simply and clearly
so that others can gain the most information from my presentation.

This voicethread explains what I have learnt during my inquiry on the Short Tailed Bat. Something I think I did really well during my inquiry process was when jacob h was doing the same animal we could work together to help each other. Next time I do an inquiry something I could improve on is to present my work in a different way. The part best about doing an inquiry was going on the internet because you could find information easier.
