Hei mahi
- Use a doughnut (refer to p 12 for definition) structure to explore the students’ prior knowledge. For example:
- Show an illustration of a kanae. In pairs, the students can share their prior knowledge about kanae, catching fish, cleaning fish, and eating fish.
- Have the inside circle rotate again, and say to the students, “Ko ‘Kanae-iti rāua ko Kanae-roa’ te ingoa o tēnei kōrero paki. Ki ōu whakaaro, ka aha ngā ika nei?” “The name of the story is ‘Kanae-iti and Kanae-roa’. What do you think these kanae will do?”
- Have the inside circle rotate again. Show the first illustration, and ask the students to predict the storyline. Repeat this process until all illustrations have been viewed. Group students in threes. Their task is to write a story based on the illustrations. Students then read the story and compare their compositions with the story itself.
- Set the task, “He aha ngā tīwhiri a te kaituhi nei ki a tātou?” “What clues does the author give us?” Have the students read the story independently. Then, using a think, pair, share structure, the students can answer the question. Ask the students to explain the reasoning behind their decisions.
- In pairs, the students can compose a poem about one of the characters in the story.
- Photocopy the illustrations from the story. Display them on the classroom walls.
- Ask the students to move from one picture to another in pairs. They can then write one or two words below each picture to describe how it makes them feel.
- Ask the students to find synonyms from the story for the following words:
p.17 | kimi |
p.18 | ka ngata taku hiahia |
p.19 | mate |
p.20 | hiakai |
p.21 | ka whai i a Kanae-roa |
p.22 | ārai atu |
p.23 | wehi |
