Spring Learning Journey
Activity 3
Talofa and welcome to my blog, this week we are celebrating Tuvalu Language Week. The theme for this year is "Fakatili Te Kiloga Fou" which means in english "Navigating the charging environment". Today I'll be sharing you the 3rd activity for SLJ and some important quotes that are from Tuvalu! But of course before showing you the activity, here are some facts that came along with the task.
Activity 3 (Facts): Tuvalu Language
As it is Tuvalu language week we are celebrating the people, parents, families, the Tuvalu Auckland Community Trust. These are all people that play important roles in keeping the Tuvaluan language and culture traditions alive. To help then they are guided by these 4 different principles which are..
- Olaga kau fakatasi ko te maopoopo ko te malosi ( Unity is togetherness and strength)
- Olaga fiafia o sale te poto sala se laumani manuia ( Wisdom is the path to happiness and a bright future)
- Olaga Fealofani (Live in peace with others)
- E see ko pati ako faiga (Actions speak louder than words)
Tuvalu Language Task
Today's task is to find out what the meaning of principles. Selecting one of the principles above we had to create a poster explaining what they actually mean in life. I chose the 4th one which is "E see ko pati ako faiga" in english it means "Actions speak louder than words) Here is my poster...
E se'e ko pati ako faiga! That's a great proverb/principle you've selected Hannah. Can you share why you selected this particular principle to create a poster for? Is it something you can relate to, is there something said in the Tongan language that is similar?
