The Myth: Te Rā is lonely. Everyday Te Rā travels all alone across the sky at night his Brother and sisters Te Marma & Ngā Whetu traveled across the sky. Singing, Laughing, And sharing stories. Sometimes Te Marama would visit Te Rā  in the day time.  

Every time Te Marama left Te Rā he would Sigh sadly and he asked if Te Marama if she could stay she replied i have to go and look after our brother Ngā Whetu  and Te Rā Asked if they both could come and visit him but Te Marama said no your light is to strong for Ngā whetu he will just fade away

Every time Te Marama left Te Rā he would Sigh sadly and he asked if Te Marama if she could stay she replied i have to go and look after our brother Ngā Whetu  and Te Rā Asked if they both could come and visit him but Te Marama said no your light is to strong for Ngā whetu he will just fade away

Te Rā searched and searched for a woman and then he came across Tangaroa and he asked if he could marie one off his daughters and then Te Rā went and asked Hine-Raumati the summer Daughter and she said Thank you for making the crops grow.

Reading Myth of Fin McCool

LI: to learn how to retell and visualize the myth of Fin McCool.

This weeks reading must do we learnt about the myth of Fin McCool and we had to visualize what we heard from the story and we had to write everything that we visualized from the story and in every box we had 5 minutes to write about the myth in each box and once we were finished we had to use this piece of paper and we had to draw what we heard from the story.

The myth of Fin McCool:  Fin McCool is a huge giant that lives in Ireland he is that biggest giant of Ireland and because Fin McCool lives in the side of the a big hill

When Fin McCool is in his house he sees this really small figure in the distance and it is benadona a really big giant and they started to talk about each other and they started to talk abuse to each other

Fin McCool was so fed up with benadon he wanted to go over to him but he needs to find a way to get over there and then finally he thinks of a way his plan is to throw big giant rocks over in to the sea so that he can use them as stepping stones

Fin McCool walks on the stepping stones and he is prepared for a fight and then Fin McCool tries to find out were benadona is and but he only finds his house and benadona has a much bigger house than Fin McCool and then Fin McCool goes back to his house before benadona comes and then when bena dona comes he is in rage because he knows that someone was here  

Fin McCool comes back home and he tells his wife all about it and Fin was Scared and then Fins wife said i have a plan so Fin McCools wife dresses up like a baby and then when benadona comes along he comes and knocks on that door  and then when benadona gets inside Fins wife gives him some bread with rocks and then as benadona eats it his teeth starts to shatter and then benadona is really scared

Benadona runs of really scared  and he smashes all the stepping stones so that Fin McCool can not get over to him
