Reading - Ina and the shark

 Today's reading task was to learn about the story of Ina and the shark. 

The task was to create a vessel for Ina to use when going on the journey.


How would you design a vessel? Would it have a stabiliser or not?




The story goes, Ina and the god of the sea fell in love but they lived so far away that they could never see each other. But one day Ina decided to go the long journey across the sea, first little fishes guided her at the reefs edge where they would no longer be able to help. Ina then got a shark to carry her the rest of the way but she got so hungery she smashed a coconut she brought with her for food on the sharks head. The shark was in pain and left Ina. The god of the sea Tinirau could sense Ina was in danger and asked Tekea the great white shark to rescue Ina and bring her the rest of the way.

  1. Fakaalofa lahi atu Chloe. WOW! This is such an awesome vessel you have created for Ina. I love the detail you put into your drawing and your blog post. I noticed how you label all the parts of your vessel and how you told us a little bit about WHY Ina would need your vessel. Keep up the great work!
