How Tatau came to Samoa

Today in reading we read a text called "How Tatau came to Samoa" it's about tattoos from Samoa and when the goddess of canoeing and the sea came the saw a pearl and lost their memory...hardly.

One the people of Fiji said in a song that "(Fijian)Woman are to be tattooed,men are not to be tattooed."So when the come back they see the pearl touch it get short term memory loss and then when the sing the song the think it's..."tattoo the men and not the woman."And so it was that way for many years and then it changed to both genders.

And now the woman are proudly tattooed with a traditional tattoo from their thighs to their knees.(Sorry its late)

The box

Today in writing we did a description of a clip called "The box" and if you'd like to find out what its about here you go...

One day in a small house a lonely old man set up a mouse trap with a box and a thin piece of wood
(Match), and hid to make sure the mouse didn’t see him.when the mouse climbed up onto the counter
he walked around the box suspiciously but then walked into the box and then the box fell and trapped
the mouse.

The man saw that the box was moving so he used one hand to keep it down and one hand to use the
newspaper as the ground for the mouse.Once the old man had placed down the box outside the window
he heard a cat screeching nearby. 

Instead of letting the mouse outside he brought him onto a table and started giving him water and food
(Breadcrumbs) when he tried to feed the mouse the mouse threw the breadcrumb  back through the air hole
. The man then opened up the box and pretended to eat the breadcrumb in front of the mouse.

But then he offered the mouse the breadcrumb which had been in his hand the mouse took it and when
the man tried to pat the mouse it ran off.Later that night the mouse climbed up onto the man and looked at
him for a bit then ran off again the mouse didn’t know that they would soon be best friends.
