Summer Learning Journey Week 1 Task 1 / Bonus Task

Today I read a short story about a famous man in Māori mythology – Maui.
Here is three facts that Ilearned about this interesting man.

Maui was sneaky because he snuck onto the waka.
Maui is a great fisherman.
He never stopped trying.

Other stories I have heard with Maui in it: 
Maui and the Sun - Maui pushed the sun up into the sky.
How Maui slowed the sun

Maui is on the movie Moana.


BONUS TASK - Waka Ama

I wouldn't like to do Waka Ama because it looks hard.
My dad did Waka Ama when he was young and competed for New Zealand in Fiji.

  1. Kia Ora Ariana,

    I really enjoyed reading the two activities you did today. Especially when you mentioned your Dad and how he competed for New Zealand, that's so amazing! He must have worked very hard! What sports do you like to play?

    Looking forward to reading more of your blog posts tomorrow! Keep up the awesome work.

    Nga mihi

  2. Hi Ariana, I didn't now that about your Dad. How cool. I would like to try waka ama again, I have done it once on a lake in Rotorua. It was fun working as a team. I think you would be good at it. What new sport would you like to try?

    Mrs Clarke :-)
