A Piece of Paradise | Lesson, Story, Purpose

 L.I: To identify the underlying morals/theme/explanations in myths, legends, and fairy-tales.
This week for reading we had to choose a different Pacific journal book to read about. I decided to read about A Piece of Paradise because it seemed interesting and was intriguing to me. It was another story from Aotearoa as well. Before creating a D.L.O about the story we chose, we had to fill out the reading notes for before, during, and after reading. This time since we were use to doing the reading notes, we had to fill out all the slides for each times when reading. In the D.L.O we had to identify if the story was a myth, legend, or fairy-tale and explain why and how. A Piece of Paradise is a Legend because it is a traditional Aotearoa story that teaches people something and could be of at a historical time.

Izanami and Izanagi (from Japan)

L.I: To identify a myth, legend, or fairytale.
This week for reading we chose a different myth/legend/fairytale to read about from Izanagi and Izanami from Japan, Mahishasura and Durga from India, Lac Long Quan from Vietnam, and Cuchulainn from Irish wich I did last year. This week I decided to choose Izanagi and Izanami from Japan. Before creating the D.L.O, we had to fill in the reading notes for before reading, during reading, and after reading. I explained the purpose, if it was a myth, legend, or fairytale, and a short summary of the text that I read. I enjoyed reading this text and found out about the story of Izanagi and Izanami.
