Mele - How Māui Slowed the Sun.

 Today TWP 4 and I have been reading the legend of How Māui Slowed the Sun, this story is about when Māui and his five brothers including himself. Māui wanted to slow down the sun so he gathered up his brothers and gave them an plan, the first step was to cut the flax so they can make ropes  so they can snare  the sun when he wakes up. Then the sun woke up  and then they snare the sun and then Māui got up and banged  the forehead of the sun with the jawbone of his grandfather, then the brother lowed the ropes and  the sun  was tried and from this day on  the sun goes slower  and we have more time to do work. Here are some question I answer. 

Why does Maui want to slow down the sun?. So he can have more time to work. Why did Maui’s brothers not want to join his plan? They were not very happy but they help cut the falx.  Why did they approach the sun during the night? So when the sun comes up they are ready.  Is this story a legend, myth or fairytale. I think this is an Legend.

After that we weave  with two different colours and weave and then we got prats of the story an drew the prat in light pencil and then went over it with an black maker. Here it is.
