Land of Voyagers Prt 1
Do now you know the incredible story of how Polynesians explored the Pacific. But do you think your parents have heard it? Or your grandparents?
Polynesian Migration - Expansion and Exploration
Hidden History: The Footsteps of My Ancestors
Sir Ian Taylor: "My ancestors were part of the greatest human adventure story of all time - and I'd never heard it before! I don't want my grandchildren only hearing the story when they turn 70, so I made them this message..."
MYTHBUSTING "THE ARRIVAL OF THE MAORIS IN NEW ZEALAND"
Re-painting The Past
Charles Goldie's "The Arrival of the Maoris in New Zealand" is probably the best-known history painting ever produced in New Zealand. The original was made it back in 1898, but if it was painted today, it would look very different. Using your understanding of how our Polynesian ancestors arrived in Aotearoa, draw an updated version of what was really happening onboard the waka hourua. Were people really starving? What food did they have? How did they store water?
ACTIVITIES:
Packing For Sea
If you were travelling to a new land - what would you bring for a journey? Remember - you could be at sea for weeks and weeks. If you are bringing animals - they need to eat and drink too! Spend some time coming up with a list of your own, and then get together as a group. Will you be able to fit everything on the waka?
Vikings vs Polynesians
For centuries, Viking seafarers ruled the North Atlantic, braving oceans peppered with icebergs to travel thousands of kilometres to their colonies in Iceland and Greenland. Make a poster, or build a model of the boats to illustrate in what ways the Viking's longship was different to the Polynesian double hulled canoe. What boat would you rather sail in, and why? In Education Perfect you will learn more about Viking Expansion and Exploration (click on link) or see your teacher for assistance.
