Reading

Yesterday my reading group learnt about a Tongan myth called Maka Feke.  Its about an octopus and a rat.  The rat was travelling by a wooden canoe when all of a sudden a strong storm broke his boat.  When he saw an octopus close to shore he asked if he could ride him to the forest promising to repay him.  The octopus agreed and swam him over.  The rat ran into the forest saying

"Hahaha I tricked you!"

This trap carries on today with a White Cowry Shell used as a rat.  The fisherman with lure an octopus over with this trap and will have enough time to catch its prey.  Here is a drawing on our activity sheet I did.
