The following questions helped unpack the story.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why didn&#8217;t Gookum want her granddaughter to swim in the lake?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What was Beulah&#8217;s reaction when she was told not to swim in the lake? Do you think that was the right way to act?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why did Beulah disobey Gookum? Do you think there may have been other ways for her to cool off without swimming in the lake?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">How did Gookum react when she discovered Beulah in the big fish? How do you think she felt?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Do you think Beulah learned something? What did she learn?<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What did you learn?<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We learned that stories are a valuable way to inform young people about the values and beliefs that First Nations consider important to their members. Teaching stories fall into different categories. Some are similar to fables, with explicit morals, others open-ended. This story is subtle, possibly even obscure, and is left to the students or listeners to discover. The discovery story educates listeners gradually. The goals or morals of the story reveal themselves to the listener, as his or her life experiences develop.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>What was difficult about this activity?&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Listen to this story: The Granddaughter who was Eaten by a Big Fish https:\/\/www.aadnc-aandc.gc.ca\/DAM\/DAM-INTER-HQ-ACH\/STAGING\/audio-audio\/lr_ks_GDEbBF_1367342235257_eng.mp3 Discussion \u2014 The Granddaughter who was Eaten by a Big Fish After telling the students &#8220;The Granddaughter who was Eaten by a Big Fish,&#8221; we asked &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.sd41.bc.ca\/inman-library\/2017\/11\/22\/the-granddaughter-who-was-eaten-by-a-big-fish\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[57,61],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sd41.bc.ca\/inman-library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1198"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sd41.bc.ca\/inman-library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sd41.bc.ca\/inman-library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sd41.bc.ca\/inman-library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sd41.bc.ca\/inman-library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1198"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sd41.bc.ca\/inman-library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1198\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1473,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sd41.bc.ca\/inman-library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1198\/revisions\/1473"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sd41.bc.ca\/inman-library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1198"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sd41.bc.ca\/inman-library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1198"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.sd41.bc.ca\/inman-library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1198"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
