In Te Ngahere we have been learning about Kupe, Nukutawhiti, Abel Tasman and James Cook so that we could know some really important stuff about New Zealand history. We got to find out lots of interesting things about the great explores. Guess what? Kupes wife Kuramārōtini gave New Zealand its Maori name Aotearoa. Abel Tasman was the first european explorer to discover New Zealand. I enjoyed finding out about these explores and about the history of New Zealand. I think what I could do better is find out some more information. I think what I did well was working with my group to find
more information.
