Summer Learning Journey | Activity 1

Fact 1 - Maui used the blood from his own nose to catch the gigantic fish because his brothers didn't give him the bait.

Fact 2 - Maui had made his fishing line from fax and recited an old karakia to give his fishing line strength.

Fact 3 - Maui is great fisherman and the giant fish that he caught was soon known as the North Island of Aoteroa and Maui's canoe the South island. 


For activity 1 and Day 1 of the 2017 Summer learning journey, we had to click on a link which took us to a site, then read a story about a famous man in Maori mythology (Maui). Then make a blog post listing 3 facts that you learnt about him and what other stories you have heard about Maui if you have. I have listed the facts I about Maui above. Some other stories I have heard about Maui is - Maui and the sun/ How Maui slowed the sun and Battles of the Mountains.

  1. Hi Victoria,
    Really good job in this task. Your written is objective and very well organised. I like how you made the clear link between how the giant fish is known as the North Island and the canoe as the South Island.
    Next time you could perhaps explain the task first and follow with the answer in this way your followers can understand and engage better with your post.

    Kia Kaha,

    Patricia

  2. Hello Victoria
    Well done on finishing your first summer learning journey activity. You did a great job and your facts about Maui are excellent. It must have been a really big fish if it became the North Island. Keep up the amazing work Victoria.
