This week for Maori the first thing we did was read a story about the beginning of earths creation. It was about the earth mother and the sky father being together with no light, but the sons of earth and the sky wanted to be free so the sons separated them. Then there was a stream of light flowing everywhere. Later the sons became gods. Tu became god of man and war, Tangaroa became god of the sea, Tawhirimatea god of wind and storm, Haumia became god of cultivated food and the wild, and lastly Rongo became god of peace and agriculture. After that we watched a video explaining the story of the beginning in Sand Art.
