Today we were reading about different kinds of stories.

Today we read stories about the British flag,HMS Endeavour and also Mercury Bay and the story i read was about the mercury bay and what read was that the boat that came they arrived at this Marae place  and there was a Maori that ran and welcomed them of the boat in November 12th 1769 to the Marae that they were standing and waiting and then another boat came from Tauranga and landed and the boat was called waka hourua Hinemoana and it was a white boat with a blue on the inside of the flag and the rest was white even the stars were white and it had black Korus on the sides of the boat.

What i enjoyed was reading and learning about when the boat that Captin cook was in landed.

What my next steps are is to make sure that i don't put down all of the articles only put down the article that i read.
