TERM 1 WEEK 10

Kia ora, following the Easter break and the short march towards the end of Term 1, we will be using these last two weeks to tighten up our focus on Identity and continue our work on reading different forms of information and data. We will be finishing the Safeswim activity at this time, and then introducing our last major task for the term: reading census data, which will involve you sifting through information with prompted guidance, and interpreting the meanings of different graphs within that data.

Success Criteria: I can/have...

• I can identify the hazards of our beaches and their quality for human interaction.
• I can demonstrate an ability to read graphs and different forms of data for their meaning and relevance to different groups of people.

Activities:

1. Safeswim activity (finishing up/stragglers)
2. The New Zealand Census - what is it?

EXPLORE / TŪHURA learning intentions:

• We are EXPLORING 'He Waka Eke Noa' by interpreting maps and sources of information about Aotearoa's population.
• We are EXPLORING 'He Waka Eke Noa' by finding and becoming familiar with events happening across the world.

So close, team!
