Iwa Tales: Instructor's Activity Guide

language (Dockside Sailing Press June 15, 2015)
In ‘Iwa Tales, by author Craig B. Smith, Kaimi Kanahele, a young boy living in Honolulu meets a mysterious ‘Iwa (Frigate Bird) on the beach. Intrigued by the large bird’s peculiar behavior, the boy approaches the bird. He is surprised to find that the bird speaks to him in a series of guttural croaks and hissing sounds, strange, but perfectly understandable. The first tale told by the bird describes how the early Polynesians arrived in the Hawaiian Islands, guided by one of the ‘Iwa’s ancestors. The bird then tells a series of other tales about the islands, with the result that Kaimi becomes committed to solving the pollution and other problems facing the oceans. The book targets 4th to 6th graders. This Instructor’s Activity Guide describes a series of activities, key questions, projects, and field trips that can be used in connection with the book.
