Task:

All Global studies students will be working on the Assessment tasks for Global Studies.

You will look into the significance of traditional Māori games to sustain Tikanga. We will also look at Māori mythology and how history has been passed down by word of mouth.  For the Global Studies Section you will be required to complete a brochure that contains the following: 

1. A relevant, catchy title

I would like to see one paragraph for Sections 2, 3 and 4. You should not spend more than 10-minutes creating your title. You will NOT be marked on fancy fonts – I will mark you on the CONTENT – which is your paragraphs.

The assessment will be completed during class time and is to be uploaded on MHOL by Friday, 23 June by 15:00.
