What do Fairies do with All Those Teeth? reviewed by Tagan.

This book is written by Michel Luppens and is for 9 year olds

The fairies can do lots of things with the teeth like sharp ones to make saws or maybe the roundest one to make maracas and they get the longest ones to make their halloween disguises   The fairies can grind the teeth into star dust.   Sometimes they get the most decayed ones to make a magic potion.The end of the book they ask if they visit the animals too   There is a picture of all different animals with missing teeth..

I enjoyed it very much

haeremai ra

The Whanau sang some Maori songs for the three American student teachers.  One of the songs were Hurihurihaere where you have to massage each other.  Matua Dean chose three people to go and massage the student teachers. We showed them how to use Manakitanga(Hospitality)also how to do our Turangawaewae. The Whanau girls did the poi for the American teachers .I think that the teachers liked our little performance. They should have stayed longer.
