  • EXPLORE / TŪHURA

    EXPLORE / TŪHURA learning intentions:

    • We are EXPLORING our context - We are Thinkers, Achievers, Innovators, Leaders - though connecting societal issues with our learning in HEALTH - drug education.
    • We are THINKERS: how and why have drugs impacted / continue to impact society?
    In HEALTH and ENGLISH, you will be investigating how and why have drugs impacted / continue to impact society.
    You will be questioning how technology has played a part in those impacts and you will choose a research area of interest to you.

    Following the MHJC Research process, you will investigate your chosen topic before analysing and interpreting your findings.This research process will form your English assessment this term.

    You will present your findings in a way that suits you - this decision will be made in conjunction with Miss Shields. Your presentation will form your PE/Health assessment this term.
