Museum Reflection

The senior classes of Glenbrae School were learning about Natural Disasters at the Auckland Museum. The thing I found the most interesting was the type of ways how a volcano can explode. They can explode many different types of rocks. Something I learned was that volcanoes are everywhere, and to be specific there are 55 volcanoes in Auckland. Mount Wellington is known as the most visited mountain in Glen Innes. I’m lucky because I could see Mount Wellington from my house.

The Maori Drill

When we got to the Museum we went to the Wharenui.In this photo my group and I are testing an ancient tool that the Maori People built.They used it to start fires instead of lighters.The fire provides light,food and heat.This tool is made of wood and a strong piece of string. It took a while for me to spin the drill and let it twirl and twirl until it worked.
