    Something has completed a full cycle


    Kia ora. We have made it to the end of Term One!  Phew, how long has it been since we were able to spend a full term together at school?  Thank you for your work this term.  We started our film technique unit by watching "The Lorax" and identifying the techniques used.  We also tied into the context of Te Taha Wairua.  Thinking back to the movie, what messages about Kaitiakitanga (care for the environment)  did this movie show?  We do not have a library session this week, but you are able to return your books at lunchtime.

    Success Criteria:

        • Use ideas from "The Lorax" to identify challenges for the environment
        • Support ideas with clear and appropriate examples
        • Suggest solutions to the challenges identified

    Activities:

    1. Sentence Surgeon
    2. Lorax environmental changes chart (Google Classroom)
    3. Write a letter to the Oncler about his actions and what needs to change

    Further Learning:
    Read a book
