Ciao Laki,
ReplyDeletemy name is Cia. I am a Ako Hiko Summer Learning Journey commentator who will be working with various bloggers over the summer break.
Activity 1:
You did a great job of posting three interesting things you learned about Richie Mccaw. Could you clarify what the second thing means for people who may not follow rugby or understand rugby terms? Also, is there anything else you wanted to learn about Richie Mccaw? I personally want to know whether he’ll ever come back to rugby in some one day.. Do you think we’ll ever see him coach?
Activity 2:
You’ve provided some insight about why Jason Taumalolo is your sporting hero, thanks for adding the team he plays for, I might do a little research about him myself. Perhaps next time you could a little more detail to your writing.. What about him inspires you to play rugby? Is it his speed? Stamina? Strength? Let me know in the comment section below.
Bonus Activity:
You’ve successfully posted the countries in which the Tango did originate from. Remember that the activity says that you must post three interesting facts about the dance style. In order to get full points for this activity, please edit your posts to include these facts. Do you know anything about the movements in a Tango?
It was a joy reading your work, keep it up!
Toe feiloa’i fo’i ('See you again' in Samoan),

Hi Cia,
DeleteHe only came of the bench six time means that he was not starting in the game and then the coach subbed him in only six times.I also want to know if he still wants to play rugby.
Jason Taumalolo's Speed,Stamina and Strength is what inspires because it is hard for his opponents to tackle him.
I do not know anything about the movements in Tango dancing.
