Hi Room 6,

I would like everyone to read this text independently first.

Soon we would be learning about survival and it would be good to understand how people could find it hard to survive in difficult situations.

Task

Download the text and read it. What would you do if you were lost in a bush. Write a paragraph about it.


Task

We read about the whalers and the sealers who came to New Zealand in the 18th century to look for whales and seals to make money. Explain why the whalers and the sealers got attracted to New Zealand. what did they use the whales and the seals for? You will have to refer to your reading 'Whalers and Sealers' available in your resource folder.

Read the text and discuss with your buddy about the life of sailors.

Highlight all the difficult words and come prepared to discuss these during group reading time.
