Talofa, this week is Tuvalu language week so I've been doing some short and simple tasks based on Tuvalu. Today I did some research on the history of Tuvalu and found these interesting facts to share with you all.
I am a Year 8 learner at Pt England School in Auckland, New Zealand. I am in Room 4 and my teacher is Mrs Stone.

Tuvaluan dance workshop
For the first 2 learning periods of school we learnt a Tuvaluan dance. Not only did we learn a dance but we also learnt facts about the island, and about it's cultural dance clothes and the cultural dances, as well as a few words to say in Tuvaluan. I found all of this interesting because I didn't know much about Tuvalu, I don't know how anyone could say they didn't like the workshop.
As we learnt about Tuvalu a lot of us noticed the it wasn't that much different to other islands like Samoa or Tonga. A lot of the words were quite similar in a way, because it was so similar in ways it was actually easier to understand. The most enjoyable thing for me was doing the dance. At first I got the moves wrong a lot but I got the hang of it and found out that it is actually very fun to do. I would like to do something like this again, soon hopefully.
