I learnt new cultural stories.
First I got into a group of 3 and read cultural stories. And I first we read a book called Rahi Patupaiarehe. And made a google slide and we had to write the title, Country/Culture, Main Characters, Events and the message.
The title was called Rahi Patupaiarehe Country New Zealand Culture Maori, Main Characters are Rahi and Ti Ara Kura Pake Wai. The events were: Tawhirimatea blew a gust of wind and it lifted Rahi. The Hokio’s kid was born and ate the egg. And Rahi was determined to find Tiara and made a game of peace after he found his wife. And the message was love and determanation.
Next I did a book called Rata me te Rakau Country New Zealand and Culture Maori, The main characters were rata rakau and the tree. And the event was: Rata was searching the forest for many days trying to find a perfect tree to make a waka to sail across the sea. Message Patience and waiting.
Lastly I read a book called Battle of the mountains Country New Zealand Culture Maori, The main characters are Taranaki, Tongariro, Tauhara and Pihanga. Event was Taranaki and Tongariro fought in the high pits of the mountains. Because they wanted to be Pihanga’s husband. Message Love and being brave.
I enjoyed this task because I got to to learn about cultural stories. I need to improve on knowing more cook island books. I did well at making the slides.
