The wayfinder activity

This week for our writing activity we wrote a paragraph about how starving we would be if we were on the the way finders boat. Here is the paragraph I wrote:

I clench my stomach as it roars from hunger. My mouth waters at the thought of delicious food and clean water. I look around me, it seems the others are thinking the same thing. "How much longer until we find land?" I thought to myself. I lay down and close my eyes hoping to sleep the hunger away, although the waves are not helping. Maybe there is a storm coming?

The Wayfinder


 Hello! Today at writing we drew a picture of what we think manu from The way finder would look like. The way finder is about a man (manu) who goes on a long journey to find new land for his people. the land they were on before was getting too crowded and resources were running out. Along the journey manu encounters a storm. eventually, he finds land. 


For the activity we did a quick sketch of what we think manu would look like then listed some of the main features. then we would give our book to a partner and get them to draw manu the way we described. 
here are the features I made for my partner to draw:
- small ears
-dark skin
-long hair
-small mouth
-big eyes
-curly hair
-scar on neck
-black hair
-tall
-freckles
-green eyes
-curly eyelashes
