The Activity: read a short story about a famous man in Maori mythology - Maui. Post three facts that you learned about this interesting man. What other stories have you heard about Maui?
Fact 1:Murirangawhenua is their grandmother.
Fact 2:At first the North Island was known as Māui's giant fish, and the South Island was known as Māui's canoe.
Fact 3:Māui's brothers never let him go fishing with them, until the one time when Māui snuck in their waka.
I've also heard stories about how Māui is a god.
Nice Bridget your facts were really interesting

DeleteHi Bridget
ReplyDeleteWelcome to the Summer Learning Journey!! My name is Allie and I will be blogging with you over the summer.
I like that you have already made comment with a friend to make comments with, that's fantastic.
Good job for the first activity. There are lots of really cool myths and legends about Maui. I'm sure your school library will have a few. He is an important part of our culture and history.
I look forward to reading your blogs over the summer.
Hope this holidays are going good so far.
Good Job
Allie
