The Octopus

You will be listening to a Haida story about the octopus.

The full audio is an hour, but you do not need to listen to the full recording. Move "the dial" so that it starts at 29:30 (about halfway into the audio). The story ends at 37:05. You will need to listen to it more than once. The first time, just listen to the story. Sketch images of what you hear while you listen, if you wish.

After listening to The Octopus once, you are ready to check out the questions.

As you listen to the story a second time, work in your Learning Guide to complete The Octopus responses.

Then go to your Short Story Journal and do Journal #8: First Nations Stories.
