Why it is so important to keep oral storytelling alive?

Oral storytelling is a great way to keep the Maori stories, alive. This is a very important tradition to pass down, from generation to generation.

In LS2 we have been looking at Myths and Legends. With a buddy you needed to watch three videos with subtitles. I then had a learning conversation with my partner (Oh Hsen). We have worked collaboratively for the last part of this activity, which was to write a very powerful 25 word summary, on why it is important to keep oral storytelling alive. The text above is our summary.
