Lockdown Moana Zine
What am I learning?
* to use information with confidence to express ideas
*to work together with peers in an interview process to form the basis of an article
to learn about each others experiences
How can I make sure I am successful?
*I’ve been kind and respectful and chosen someone to work with that I don’t normally work with or don’t know very well. (This is a chance to understand how the lockdown was for some of your peers, but also to get to know your classmates better).
*I’ve been kind and respectful when listening to their answers. (If they don’t want you to write something down, don’t write it down)
*I’ve paraphrased the answers back to my partner using these sentence starters:
What I am hearing you say is that….
So from that I understand that…
In other words you…….
If I am understanding you correctly you are telling me that….
This way you will know that you have understood your classmate correctly.
Activity description/steps:
Read the interview questions carefully and add some of my own questions
Work with someone that you don’t usually work with so that you will get to know other people in our class
Be respectful and kind when asking and answering questions (Everyone has had different experiences through the lockdown)
After you have asked them the questions and written down the answers go back through them with them to make sure you have the right information, you can use the sentence starters
Make sure you both have the chance to ask each other questions
Share back, if you have permission, some of your partners answers with your family / classmates
Present the information you have learned about the other person's time at home / in class
Extras for early finishers:
Put time into your presentation. Be creative, have fun. We will put all the lockdown articles and some straight interviews into a Moana Lockdown ‘Zine.
