17 June - 23 June

                                                                    FOCUS / ARONGA learning intentions:

We are EXPLORING pop culture by comparing how my own or another cultural has evolved or remained the same over time.

We are EXPLORING relationships by discovering the various connections and uses people and communities have to animals.

                                                                                          Success Criteria:

• I can examine my own or another culture and reflect on how it has changed or remained the same over time.
• I can reflect on the importance of relationships between people, animals and the physical environment.
  

SOSC KNOW: People use different ways to sustain and evolve their culture and identity.

SOSC KNOW: People’s connections to places, resources, and environments can generate cooperation or lead to disputes over rights and responsibilities, with differing consequences.

Week 8 Learning Activities

                                                                                               Monday

• Firstly, you will watch this loom video of how to complete all of the tasks.
• Then you will watch this about historical connections to Japan within “Demon Slayer.”
• Afterwards, you will make a story with the class or group of students at your table. You will write a sentence of a story on a sheet of paper. After a few minutes you will give it to the next person at your table until everyone has written a sentence.
• After that, you will see a list of pop culture and how they show historical links. Then on the next slide of the "Cultural Evolution Slideshow" you need to drag the pictures into the boxes alongside the correct names.
  
• Finally, you will need to research your own pop cultural reference which relates to history. You will then need to describe how it shows history. Also, draw, label and colour it into your global studies books to AT LEAST A YEAR SEVEN STANDARD.

• Finally, as a class or in groups you will all write a story about animals you have a connection with. Each person will have a minute to write a sentence of a story about an animal on paper.
