20 February - 26 February

FOCUS / ARONGA learning intentions:

• We are FOCUSING on the colonisation and settlement which is central to Aotearoa New Zealand's histories for the past 200 years.
• We are DEFINING and DISCUSSING the understanding that people's lived experiences are shaped by the use and misuse of power.
• We are FOCUSING on that interactions change societies and environments.

This week we are focussing on the treatment and mistreatment on the Pasifika people during the Dawn Raid era. Please be aware, this subject deals with racism in a strong way and we are encouraged to form our ideas and opinions on this.

Answer the questions in the green boxes in your book.
