Day 1: Arriving in New Zealand SLJ

For the Summer Learning Journey we have to practice challenges. Here is what I did today.  

It is widely believed that the first
people to arrive in New Zealand
came from Polynesia. Most
historians believe that they
landed in New Zealand over 700
years ago. Although they were
originally from many different
countries, these settlers learned
to live together and, eventually,
formed their own distinct culture
known as ‘Māori.’ Māori have
their own language, traditions,
and culture.

Follow this link to read a short story about a famous man in Māori mythology –
Maui. On your blog, post three facts that you learned about this interesting
man. What other stories have you heard about Maui?


Maui is a strong and brave man his a great fisher. He is in the movie Moana and he is in a book called The Fish of Maui.
