This week for reading we have been learning to infer. Inferring is when the author has not stated a fact, but has left clues. We had to look for the clues. For example, the author did not say Māui was mean but we thought he was because he deliberately put out everyone's fires and the people were very cold. We made character descriptions saying which character trait the Gods and Demigods had and why we thought that. Then we had to see the similarities and differences between Māori Gods or Demigods to Greek Gods. Prometheus is a Titan and not a God but we found a story about him and compared him to Māui.
Then we created our own God and gave him or her personality traits.
What kind of traits do you think Gods have? Why do you think that?
