Explorers

We have been learning about Abel Tasman and Captain James Cook.  Abel Tasman was the first 
European man to visit New Zealand. Captain James Cook had six kids.  Captain James Cook is European.  When Abel Tasman traveled to New Zealand, Maori people were there and Abel Tasmans 
group traded things to the Maori people.  The European people did trade too.   Abel Tasman traveled
on the sea because it's could the Tasman sea.  Captain James Cook called Fiji the savage island
because the Fijian people tried to eat Captain James Cook.  Captain James Cook called Tonga 
The nice island because they were nice to Captain James Cook.
