DAY 1 - CONNECTIONS

Welcome to the Young Ocean Explorers 21 Day Challenge!

How are we connected to the moana?

Today we will explore bodies of water - awa, roto, moana - that are near us or that we have connections to. We will look at how we use this water and how it might be important for our community.

FIRST watch this video - Young Ocean Explorers 'Whai and navigation'. How did early Māori know where they were going and where they were without maps?

NEXT look on a map to find where you are and the area around you. Can you see any areas of water near you - lakes, rivers, sea?

THEN choose the level of work that suits you...

*Connections - starter

**Connections - medium

***Connections - more complex

WHAKATAUKI

Te toto o te tangata, he kai; te oranga o te tangata, he whenua

While food provides the blood in our veins, our health is drawn from the land
