Day 2 (A1) - Giants Among Us


For this activity we had to post whether we would or wouldn't like to go and see the Tane Mahuta tree. We also had to give a reason supporting our opinion.

  1. Hello Reagan!

    It's Katelynn here, I would really like to visit Tane Mahuta tree! It looks so big in the picture so imagine how big it would be in real life. I would also like to compare myself to Tane Mahuta imagine how small we would look! What is the biggest or tallest tree you've ever
    seen?

    Have a great christmas and enjoy your holidays!

      Thank you for your comment! I really like how you have added in a question!
      Yeah, it would be pretty awesome to compare ourselves to the tree. I think it might be like a human compared to an ant!!!
      At home, we have a pretty huge Rimu tree and before they were cut down the pine trees were pretty tall! What was the biggest tree YOU have ever seen? Would you like to visit the Tane Mahuta one day, I know I would?

  2. Hi Reagan

    Great presentation of this activity. I like that you have challenged the readers if they would like to see Tane Mahuta.
    Well, I am lucky enough to have seen Tane Mahuta. I was born in Northland so I lived up that way for a few years. He is absolutely magnificent and well worth the trip to see him.
    I really hope that they are able to get the disease under control that is effecting all the kauri trees in the area. It is great that all the visitors to the forest are obeying the rules and washing their shoes when they enter and leave the forest.
    I am sure that you will get there one day.
    Great to see that Katelynn has been commenting on you posts. Make sure you go and comment on lots of blogs. It is worth the extra points to you.
    Hope you are having a great time in Le Bons Bay. It is warm here so I hope it is there too.

    Until next time

    Allie :)

      Thank you very much for your helpful comment on my blog!
      When Mum was pregnant with me, her and Dad went to see Tane Mahuta.
      I think that it is great that they have some rules in place to stop the kauri trees becoming extinct. A bit like Macchu Picchu!
      Yes, hopefully I will get to see the tree one day!
      We had a lovely time in Le Bons Bay and were luckily enough to get wonderful weather while we were over there!
      How have your holidays been?

    I like how you have included an explanation of what the task was at the bottom of your post. This makes it clearer to see exactly what you had to do. Great to see you included a picture of Tane Mahuta and that you have started attributing your pictures. Again, when I was pregnant with you, Dad and I went for a trip around the top of the North Island and visited this giant of a tree. It was very impressive, especially in comparision to the other trees there. They were big trees, too, but nothing compared to Tane Mahuta! I knew you would choose to go to see it because you love going to new places and seeing new things. It is always a pleasure taking you to new destinations.

    Love Mum

      Thank you, again for commenting on my blog!
      I decided to start explaining my posts as visitors who have nothing to do with the SLJ will know nothing about what we had to do.
      Yes, I would absolutely LOVE to go up to visit the tree as it is quite a big landmark of NZ.
      Did you have to take off your shoes when you went into the forest?
