Matariki stories

Last week we started looking at different Myths and Legends about Matariki. We had a go at retelling the stories in our own words. Here are a few of our stories...

Maui Slowed down the Sun. Tama - nui-te- ra, the sun, was angry and went to hide. Without the sun it got cold. It was winter. The people missed the sun. Matariki sang songs and brought back the sun. Everyone was happy. Matariki is a time when we remember and celebrate. By Swyft

 Maui and his  brothers slowed Tama nui te ra .The sun was hurt and hid away. It was cold and all the people were sad. Matariki and her sisters sang songs and brought Tama nui te ra back. By Waiariki

    Dear Room 2, we are Room 4 from Makauri School.
    We liked the way that you made the pictures and shared them with us.
    We liked the sentences and stories.
    We loved how you explained your stories.
    We like how you made the pictures then you wrote the story about the pictures.
    We learnt a new Matariki story from your blog post. It is the story about the sun and how the songs were sung to bring the sun back.
