Māui And Tamanuiterā


In the first part of this story the villages are upset because
Tamanuiterā moved across the sky too fast and no one had enough time to do all the things
they needed to do. Then Māui said to his four brothers,”I shall slow Tamanuiterā,”
but his brothers just laughed at him.

In the second part of the story Māui and his brothers are making ropes then
Māui tells them to go to bed and Māui joins all the ropes together into  a big net.
He chants a karakia to make the net as strong as a thousand men.


In the third part of this story Māui and his brothers are walking to Tamanuiterā.
They get there just as Tamanuiterā is rising. So they throw the net over Tamanuiterā
and then Māui starts to hit Tamanuiterā. He hits the sun  until Tamanuiterā agrees to slow down.
The end

When our group worked on the play Māui and the sun I played the sun.
One thing I really enjoyed was working together and making props.
I think one thing we did really well was learning our lines.
As a team we got our play to performance level and participated and contributed because
we all did our bit. Our performance did well because we practiced.
Next time we could listen to everyone and  be a bit easier on people.
