Social Studies

Kia Ora and welcome to your new and improved Social Studies classroom. We will be looking at Maori Culture and how culture has changed over time. We will also explore other cultures and the effects of colonization. We will discuss differing ideas of tikanga and its ever changing stance in society.

One fo the biggest challenges we as New Zealanders have continue to face is the introduction of overseas diseases and virus', this is explored more in the second half of our first assessment. I am looking for ward to your guys discussion on the matters ahead. Mauri Ora!

With this video I have below a 15 step lesson that can involve the whole family. Please work on this if you have finished the Citizen's Handbook. The Google Doc is below and hopefully we can have a discussion in our online 'Google Meet'. This series of lessons will require you to think of yourself in different situation as different people. You will to use your imagination and delve in cultural responsive discourse.
