Speaking My Truth

Bula! Hurumanu has started and my class, Tz,  is combined with Co and Wh. We are all participating in Drama. Since we started we haven't done complicated stuff, but let me tell you about the things we have done so far. 

We had been working on a couple of sheets. One of them was about where you had to draw a granny and on the back of the sheet you had to answer questions about grannies, some like, "Grannies need _____", Grannies like _____", Grannies dislike ______" and so on. 

Our second sheet was called "Role on the wall", it was where you had to draw a gingerbread man like shape on the paper and inside of the drawing you had to write down some facts about yourself that affect you mentally. For example, you could write, "I'm scared of spiders", "I'm scared of the ocean" and more. But on the outside of the drawing, you had to write facts about your appearance, you could write, "My hair is curly" or "I have short hair".

On Mondays and Tuesdays, we have Drama and always 2 periods of it. One of the periods is with Mrs Clark and the other one with Matua Morehu. With Matua, we play games where everybody walks around the room without touching or talking to anyone. We also play a game where we sit in a circle facing the outside and we have to count to 10. The catch is you don't know who's going to say the number so if 2 people end up saying the same number you have to start over.
