From one Pa to another

From one Pa to another

This week for math we learnt coordinates. we had to create a map with three different Locations, one going the most direct way from a pa in kaiapoi to Ōnawe Peninsula then the going only though the land and finally going across the water and our mission was You are the warriors chosen by your Rangatira to lead a rescue mission. You are safe at home at Kaiapoi Pa but have heard news of your kinsmen in distress. Ōnawe Pa is under attack and you must get there as soon as possible to rescue those who are under threat and help fight against Te Rauparaha’s advancing war party. You have been given the following brief.

1. You must measure distance between the two locations

2. What is the most direct route from one place to the other

3. What is the most direct route by water

4. What is the most direct route by land
