Hi James,
ReplyDeleteMy name's Ruby and I'm one of the people who will be blogging with you this summer during the Summer Learning Journey. It's great to see that you have made a start on these activities! Well done.
These are some really good facts about Maui. I like how you have talked about how brave he was. He definitely was very brave!
Do you know why his brothers thought he wasn't very good at fishing? I thought he was pretty great!
Have you read any other Maui stories? There's a really good one about Maui and the sun which you may enjoy. Here is the link if you would like to read it: http://eng.mataurangamaori.tki.org.nz/Support-materials/Te-Reo-Maori/Maori-Myths-Legends-and-Contemporary-Stories/How-Maui-slowed-the-sun
Let me know if you enjoy it!
