Samoan Language Week

Samoan Language Week!

Talofa Lava, Last Week was Samoan Language week. Their was lot's and lot's of cool things. The first day of the week was Monday. The Samoans had a Rotation in the hall. It was also the Start of The Taste of Samoa. While they were rotating, they chose jobs they wanted to do to show the rest of May Road School. Tuesday was our turn at rotating. When we went down to the hall, their were 5 stations.

We were put into groups of 5. My groups first station was Station number 2. We learned about their Coconut and how they eat the Coconut. They gave our group some coconut pieces and as soon as it entered my mouth, I could already taste the coconut juice. After a few minutes past, their was a bell, It rang to signal the groups to move to the next station. In Station 3, we learned about some things that Samoans have in their home. When the bell rang, we went to Station 4. In station 4, this time we learned about a type of hot food they eat in Samoa. They said you can call it chip;s like fish and chips. It was like peeling potatoes. The bell rang and off we went to Station 5. Our Station which was station 5, we learned about Koko. We learned about how to make it. We also got to have a drink as a treat. When the bell rang, we walked to our last station which was station 1. We learned about Samoan accessories they have in Samoa. After the bell rang, we lined up and went back to class. 

After a day past, It was Thursday. In the morning, we went down to the court for the Samoan Independence Ceremony. After the Ceremony, we got to eat a Samoan Breakfast called Sua fa a'i. It had some Banana's in them. We took some and ate it in the classroom. It was So yum! My friends said it was too sweet but I say, Sweet is my thing! The last day of the week was Friday. Friday was the Samoan Assembly. The Assembly was So Perfect! The dances were put together really well! The Samoan Language week really encouraged me to love Samoa! I Love Samoa!
