Room 12 got introduced to a new game called Poi Rakau. Poi Rakau is game where every person has a long stick and is standing in a circle, if the caller calls out "Whaka te Maui" than means you move left and if the caller calls out " Whaka te Matou" that means you move right. You have to try and get the stick before it hits and ground and make sure you don't push each other and each others stick. It was fun playing Poi Rakau with my class and I hope you try it with your class for Maori Language Week or for fun.
Hey Alanna, nice explanation on how to play Poi Rakau. I also played it with my class and it was super fun. Maybe next time include a picture of you playing it with your class if it is available.
