Section outline

  • Hi Everyone,

    Please follow the instructions in the attached lessons for the week.  

    In Lesson 1 - we are looking at the possibility that the strange behaviours exhibited by the young girls in Salem were caused by eating bread contaminated with a fungus that made them sick.  Please watch the video and answer the questions in your Red Books.

    In Lesson 2 - we will look at Myths about the Salem Witches.  There is a Reading - but Tommie and I have also made a video that you can watch that will help you to summarise each myth in your own words and explain why it isn't true.

    For Lesson 3 we are creating a poster about the Witch-hunts and how similar things have happened in New Zealand in recent years involving people who were falsely accused based solely on stereotypes such as viewing Muslims as terrorists; Chinese as responsible for Covid, and trying to deport Pacific Islanders during the Dawn Raids.  This poster project - and the instructions of how to do it - can be found in the attached lessons for this week - and is due Wednesday of Week 10.  

    Mr B.
