45min Inquiry


The first picture is a Totem pole. Most people call the totem pole a "story pole." They are man made carvings. The carver carves it about family. The totem pole can memorialize deceased person. Can also represent a animal or clan. The biggest totem pole is 56.4m.

Second picture is a boomerang. The boomerang is first came from Australia. They were used for hunting and you throw the boomerang and it spins in a perpendicular way. You throw a boomerang by holding the bottom of the boomerang. It needs to be thrown on a 5 to 10 degree angle.

Maori Carvings is this a third picture. The Toi Carving represents a special person. A lot of carvings can be seen in maraes.

Inuit whaling boots are for a child and they are made out of whale seal leather which is gray. White ribbon and is an Artic Souvenir

What are these things and what do they have in common.
1. Totem Pole
2. Boomerang
3. Maori carving
4. Inuit whaling boots

They are all apart of cultures.
