A Moon Myth


This week in literacy we looked at another Maori Myth. This one was about a woman who was taken by the moon because she didn't watch what she was saying. This myth is a well known myth and I've heard different versions of it in Te Reo when I was younger. There is even a Maori Waiata about her. For this task we had to read the text make word groups. We then had to record ourselves reading a fraction of the text. We also had to create a storyboard find some worthy words and do a create task. It was heaps of fun and I'm looking forward to doing more!

    Kia ora Zaeeda,
    You are right, the story of Rona is well known and is also the subject of a well known waiata. I enjoyed listening to your recording of a short excerpt from Moon Story by Patricia Grace. As a storyteller, you have just your voice to keep your listener engaged. Speaking slowly (but not too slowly!, clearly and with lots of expression is the key - good job Zaeeda!

    Dear Ms Tapuke

    Thank you for your comment. Yes I have decided that my next steps to improving my reading is to use my voice to tell a story well.

    Kind Regards
    Zaeeda
