Why do the Maungari sleep? LI:
To write a pourquoi (tell me why or how) story that follows the structure and paints a picture in the mind of the reader.
Back ,far back,in the mists of time when the world was very young there was a mountain. It was a very sleepy mountain.
The mountain was named Maungarei. Everyone was distant because they didn’t want to make her mad so they let her rest rather than waking her up. As days passed on she was resting, then out of nowhere someone woke her up.
It wasn’t one the mountains that woke her. It was strange because it was coming from the earth’s surface and as each mountain whispered to one another.
When Maungarei woke up they knew that they had to be careful because of how stubborn she was and as well as everyone was trying to find out which area of the earth’s surface made that loud noise suddenly another noise came up .
They figured it was the village that tried stopping the villagers, but the villagers thought that it was a blessing from god so they started singing to the sky which made Maungarei feel annoyed and as rage filled her heart.
She started to erupt when out of nowhere smoke came out and some of the villagers started to run because they thought it wasn’t safe considering that some may have been counghing while smelling the smoke.
Others run because of their safety and their children’s safety and as the lava came out they realized it wasn’t safe at all when Maungarei stopped there was nothing left or anyone left. Now she was lonely because she was the only one that survived the eruption and sadly the other mountains did not survive the eruption. As her anger started to wear off she slowly realized what she had done.
As time passed on things slowly began to grow, nature started to grow even more and animals, humans started to come on to the Island.
Things became normal but everyone knew the ancient which gives more of an intense fear towards Maungarei. Some may believe that something larger had cost the ancient but the people who survived know much more to what happened. As life goes on this story gets told to many humans as it shows what happens when you are in fury and you become unhappy towards someone or something that didn’t work out for you.

Today in ls2 we made a Pourquoi Story. The story was about why the maungarei sleeps and the reason for why maungarei sleeps is because it erupted a long time ago and once a volcano erupts it takes a break for it’s next up coming eruption which in this case the Maungarei has already erupted so the Maungarei will erupt in the future.
