    Kia ora Te Wai Whānau Year 10

    The first term was taken by Ms. Kate Lambert, who designed the below layout and the first term's work. 

    My name is Mr. Mitchell (lmitchell@mhjc.school.nz). I look forward to a GREAT year with you all. 

    For Global Studies this year you will need:

    • Device and exercise book
    • Pens, glue, ruler, colouring in pencils and highlighters


    You need to get these out when you are waiting in a line outside our classroom. 

    Once invited in, you need to put your bag in the bag cupboard.  You then need to log on to MHOL and go to our Global Studies planning page. You are to read the Learning Intentions, Success Criteria and Learning Activities planned. 

    This will be our routine and I expect not to ask you to do this but for you to manage yourselves.



  • Term 1 Week 1


    If you look at a cross-section of a river, you’ll see that the water flows differently at different depths. Usually, the flow is fastest on the surface and slows as you go deeper down. But sometimes things look smooth on the surface, while the current below is bubbling with activity. If you judge the river only by looking at the surface, you’ll be misled.

    A classroom is like the river. It has different layers of learning going on at the same time. On the surface are knowledge and information: the subjects and topics being studied. They are usually easy to see and describe, and it is straightforward to know how well students have captured them. Also, they tend to move quickly. 


    Learning Activity:

    1. Reflecting on your river of learning 
    - Hand out - writing sample and introducing yourself as a learner; collected at the end of the session
    a) When do you feel unsafe in the river? Times during learning, where you possibly struggle to keep your head above the water?
    b) When do you feel as if you navigate the river with confidence? Times during learning, where you make the most of the currents and rapids to have fun and move quickly?

    3. It would seem there is a relationship between people population and positive liveability factors
      - ie low population = low measurement of liveability factors
      - sizeable population = measurement of liveability factors & increasing pull factors for migration
      But is there a tipping point - where excessive population who have a negative impact on liveability?
      Before we can ask this critical thinking question - we need to EXPLORE the impact settlement(s) have on people, places & the environment

  • Term 2 Week 1

    Welcome back to Term 2! As you know, Ms. Lambert has moved on from the school to even starrier heights. I am Mr. Mitchell, your new Global teacher for the rest of the year. I will formally introduce myself in the lesson, but you are all pretty familiar with me so it won't be dramatic or anything. The main two key things to understand are: I am familiar with the assessment work you did last term, and we are capping off last term's context within Week 1, as we have a very cramped next few weeks due to the fixed date for the assessment, which I will keep you informed about.

    This week will be your last pit stop on the discussion of global inequality, where we look at the haves & have nots of certain countries, and create a strong definition of what the 'global north' and 'global south' are. Where does New Zealand fit in these countries? Are we exploiters?

    Success Criteria: 

    • I can locate different families across varied economic scales and describe their challenges unique to their income and location.
    • I can show my understanding of North & South as more than geographic locations and explain their economic connotations.

    Activities:

    1. Dollar Street - comparing families from the Top 10 and Bottom 10 countries (Supporting documents on Google Classroom)
    2. Global North & Global South - definitions and applying our knowledge

    Follow Up Tasks:
    N/A - Assessment happened in Week 1, though opening slideshow did briefly go over some work they may have forgotten over the break.


    EXPLORE / TŪHURA

    EXPLORE / TŪHURA learning intentions:

    • We are EXPLORING Liveability Factors by investigating the push and pull factors that make a place liveable.
    • We are EXPLORING Equity and Equality by comparing resources available to the developing and developed world.
    • We are EXPLORING Equity and Equality by analysing the resources available to the developing and developed world.

  • Term 2 Week 2

    Kia ora Year 10s, this week begins our focus for the term: Whanaungatanga, exploring the ups and downs of kinship. What happens when a society cannot form healthy connections? What issues have plagued our communities? How does prejudice take shape?

    To help explore this, and prepare you for the assessment in Week 6, we are beginning our term with a broad overview of human rights. We cannot look at abuses of rights and ill treatment of minority groups in NZ without having a background understanding of what classid ideas of 'rights' are. We will delve into human rights and their origins in the atrocities of Nazi Germany and the Japanese Empire, and how human rights are widely applicable concepts that aren't necessarily backed up by law. 

    Success Criteria: I can/have...

    • I can analyse the origin of human rights as a response to the atrocities of World War II.
    • I can explain a large list of human rights as defined by the UDHR and apply it across different scenarios.

    Activities:

    1. UDHR - WWII & Inception
    2. Human Rights - List of Rights (Website analysis)

    Additional in-class slideshows available on request.

    Follow Up Tasks:
    Human Rights Scenarios - What right applies in this situation?


    EXPLORE / TŪHURA

    EXPLORE / TŪHURA learning intentions:

    • We are EXPLORING... human rights by investigating its conception and history across the decades.

  • Term 2 Week 3

    This portion of the course is where we really begin to focus on the idea of perspectives, how different people were treated due to differing points of view and different ideas of acceptable ways of life. This is the core of your assessment, regardless of whether you are picking the NCEA option or not.

    This week, we are beginning our look at Chinese Aotearoa history - how racism was at the core of the Pakeha engagements with Chinese migrants, and why Chinese migrants came here to begin with. What was the first wave like? How were they treated? How did they survive? When the gold ran out, how did Chinese individuals adapt to changing circumstances?

    We also look at the 'Yellow Peril' and how this attitude was not unique to Aotearoa New Zealand.

    Success Criteria: 

    • I can empathise with how Chinese workers were treated & why they came to work in Aoteroa New Zealand to begin with.
    • I can define what the Poll Tax was & how it was applied to Chinese migrants.
    • I will discuss how Aotearoa New Zealand socially treated Chinese people at large,

    Activities:

    1. Chinese Migration - Part 1 (Slideshow, Google Classroom)
    2. Chinese Migration - Part 2 (Slideshow, Google Classroom)

    Follow Up Tasks:
    Political Cartoons to break down how racism was shown during the era.


    EXPLORE / TŪHURA

    EXPLORE / TŪHURA learning intentions:

    • We are EXPLORING... human rights by investigating its conception and history across the decades.
    • We are EXPLORING... Aotearoa New Zealand's approach to race by interpreting select case studies.
    • We are EXPLORING... crime and punishment by analysing the treatment of complex individuals and groups.
    • We areEXPLORING... Chinese New Zealand history by empathising with the many stories and narratives that have been woven into this country's history.

  • Term 2 Week 4

    Kia ora class, this week finishes our look at Chinese Aotearoa and begins our focus on the Dawn Raids & Polynesian Panthers. 

    We will have one lesson where we look at the Gock family, a highly respected family of Chinese New Zealanders who navigated the Kumara crisis of the 1950s, becoming a success story of Chinese presence in NZ despite the obstacles of government-approved racism.

    The topic of the Dawn Raids may contain some uncomfortable language and discussions of violence, but they are appropriate for your year level and will be discussed & shown tastefully. This topic is one of the most powerful moments of modern Aotearoa and the thought of the Dawn Raids still lingers with many Pasifika families today. In the interest of time, rather than talking about both topics for over a week at a time, I have decided to put them both together so we can be ready for the assessment in time. We are going to look at this pivotal part of Aotearoa New Zealand's history and the people and organisations behind it, all within a rough one and a half week span.

    Success Criteria: I can/have...

    • I can describe the issues facing Chinese migrants in the decades following the Poll Tax.
    • I can recognise the changes towards Chinese people in NZ society, using the Gock family as a case study.
    • I can summarise the economic and social changes in Aotearoa NZ during the 1950s to 1960s that directly influenced NZ's immigration policies.
    • I can empathise with some of the challenges and rapidly evolving conditions facing Pacific Islanders during that time.
    • I can make connections with how the Dawn Raids may have similarities to how Chinese New Zealanders were treated back then & in previous decades.

  • Term 2 Week 5

    Kia ora, this is our last week before the Perspectives assessment begins. Ms. Carter and I are finalising what you will be doing, and we will make sure you have adequate time in class. 10W1 may have extra time in class for work depending on future schedule changes as you guys will lose two sessions to the teacher only day and a public holiday in the next week.

    This week will be our last focus on the Dawn Raids & Polynesian Panthers, focusing more on clearly understanding the role of the Panthers as a reaction to racism, something that sprung out as a response to injustice rather than the idea that they simply 'existed'. To do this, we have three activities - a documentary on the Dawn Raids, a slideshow on the mechanics of the Dawn Raids, and a Bus Stop Activity where we look at an excerpt by Melani Anae and do delegated speed reading in five minute spans.

    Success Criteria: I can/have...

    • I will be able to state how the Dawn Raids were carried out, and the role of the police in them.
    • I will show how the Dawn Raids directly influenced the forming of the Polynesian Panthers.
    • I can say what the Polynesian Panthers were and how they put pressure on the government for their racist policies.

    Activities:

    1. Dawn Raids & the Panthers (2005) Documentary (link here)

  • Term 2 Week 6

    Kia ora, this was supposed to be the first week of your assessment. However, upon discussion, it was decided that this week would work as your pre-assessment week: essentially a catch-up week that will contain lots of hard work in order to get you prepared for the next three weeks. 

    As your assessment is about perspectives from a human rights issue, I decided that Nazi Germany and the Holocaust (a complex topic that deserves a full term of work) will be our case study for this week. We began this term looking at human rights, and we will come back to the topic that directly resulted in the creation of the United Nations.

    It is also the definitive historical event of the last century, amassing more writing than any other event known to mankind. It is extremely well-documented, which makes it extremely useful for a perspectives study. We will be making a brief look at the Nazi Party and its ideals, how the Holocaust was conducted and finally, you will be writing a 200 word answer that'll test you on your ability to understand a given perspective and communicate a response to it.

    In-class slideshows available upon request.

    Success Criteria: 

    • I can understand the broad policies of the Nazi Party, and how those policies lead to the Holocaust.
    • I can respond to a tough question of human rights that requires a definitive and explained answer.

    Activities:

    2. Nazi Political Cartoons
    3. Victims of the Holocaust
    4. Holocaust Timeline

  • Term 3 Week 1

    Kia ora Year 10s, welcome back to MHJC for Term 3! This is going to be a less busy term for us than the previous term, as you will not be required to do an assessment this term - we have done our two! So with that in mind, we can take a more relaxed approach to the still-heavy amount of work we have to do this term, especially as this is your second to last term at MHJC and I want your CAT in Term 4 to be successful.

    Our key focus this term is on economics, primarily filtered through tourism & the Olympics, but also with a focus on how Aotearoa economically interacts with the wider world. This week is an introduction to Ancient Greece: the ancestral home of the Olympics, and the birthplace of democracy. It is also a chance to set up the reality that a robust, developed economy is not a contemporary invention - it goes back thousands of years.

    Success Criteria: I can/have...

    • I can distinguish the differences politics and customs of the two most powerful Greek city-states, Athens and Sparta
    • I can explain the Ancient Greek economy and what challenges and successes it had at the time

    Slideshows & activities available upon request

    Activities:

    1. Athens vs. Sparta Worksheet
    2. Slavery Class Discussion - why were the Greeks so reliant on it?
    3. Ancient Greek Economy (worksheet, class discussion)

    Kia ora Year 10s,

    Week 2 continues our trip to Greece, while getting ready for learning the history of the Olympics. We may or may not start Olympics a bit earlier than Week 3 depending on how we progress with finishing our Greek Economy work and our focus on the Greek gods & their place in Greek society. The interruption of SLC Day on Tuesday makes this a question mark.

    Success Criteria: 

    • I can identify and explain the intricacies of the Greek gods and their place in Ancient Greek society.

    Activities:

    1. Finishing last week's Greek Economy work
    2. Greek Life: Gods & Values

  • Term 3 Week 3

    Kia ora, this week & a half is going to be our last focus on Ancient Greece/the Olympics - how did the Ancient Greek society work? Were the Ancient Olympics an economic boom compared to the Olympics today? And what exactly are the Olympics today - where did they originate from, and what is their impact? Why do countries want to host the Olympics? We will come back to the Olympics later on in the term after we look at the tourist economy, something the Olympics is deeply intertwined in.

    Success Criteria: I can/have...

    • I can explain the relevance of the Greek Olympics to the Ancient Greeks and what it meant to them, defining concepts like honour and whether the Olympics were as economically relevant to them as the modern Olympics are today
    • I can analyse both the origins of the modern Olympics and some of the pros and cons surrounding them

  • Term 3 Week 4

    Kia ora, this week we will be finishing off last weeks focus on the Olympics and beginning our introduction into tourism - we will be interrupted next week by a teacher only day so we will likely end up cramming a lot of content in this week. Activities will be finishing off our Olympics sheets and moving on to an engaging discussion about tourism in class, and its impacts on select locations (NZ/Japan & Korea/Spain) as well as having a tourism overview worksheet to work on.

    Success Criteria: I can/have...

    • I can create a definition of tourism and apply it to many different subcategories of tourism
    • I can suggest why certain countries may be having lingering resentment towards tourism

    Activities:

    1. In-class discussions (slideshows available on request)

  • Term 3 Week 5

    Kia ora, there will be an interruption this week due to teacher only day - you guys will lose one lesson, which is annoying to the overall plan of exploring tourism but fine. This week will have an explicit NZ focus - exploring Aotearoa's tourist relationship with the world, as well as its direct relationship with China and how China has increasingly become an irreplaceable part of NZ's tourist economy. If there is time, we will also look at overtourism as part of winding down our look at the impact of the global tourist economy - what happens when there is simply too much happening in the world?

    Success Criteria: I can/have...

    • I can define NZ's relationship with tourism
    • I can explain why China has increasingly become centred in NZ's tourism economy
    • Optional: I can clearly define overtourism's impact on certain locations

    This week's focus will be on tying up the topic of tourism by asking what the involvement of the United Nations is, a perennial focus of ours. We will then cap things off with a fun look at dark tourism - what is it? What makes it 'dark'? What does it say about the tourism industry that this is a subset of its economy?

    Success Criteria: I can/have...

    • I can identify the role of the United Nations in relation to tourism
    • I can explain some of the pros and cons of dark tourism

    Kia ora, this week renews our focus on the Olympics - specifically Rio & Beijing, two Olympics of great note. One embodies the corruption and failings of the IOC, the other embodies what can happen when a country wishes to announce itself to a new century. We will be comparing the controversies of both, and the economics behind what it truly takes to put on the world's most expensive events. This will almost certainly take the full week.

    Success Criteria: I can/have...

    • I can identify key facts about both the Rio and Beijing Olympics
    • I can compare and contrast the highs and lows of their respective ceremonies
    • I can critically analyse some of the decisions Brazil and China made when it came to making their Olympics a success

    CAT Revision Week
    Kia ora Y10s, this is the week where we start getting *serious* about the next few weeks - this week is going to be entirely revision & skills growth, primarily done in the form of the CAT Revision Test that will take up at least two lessons. This is the week where we figure out exactly what your strengths and weaknesses are - do we need extra time for mapping, extra time for sentence construction, close reading, so on and on. 

    I have decided that this week's work will be largely self-directed as ultimately it is your choice how well you want to do on the exam. I will be checking in with every person - and additionally with work experience - but ultimately it is your choice about the type of work you want to do and how well you apply yourself to it. The Study Guide has been explained and is readily available.

    Success Criteria: I can/have...

    • I can successfully prepare myself for a range of questioning on the CAT tests
    • I can apply myself to developing skills like close reading & reading various types of images and environments for their meaning and/or clear unambiguous content

    - Latitude/Longitude
    - Reading scales and identifying landmarks
    - Rainfall
    - Sea levels
    - Heat wave mapping

    CAT Week

    This week will be CAT Week - where you are tested on both the year's content & general skills that you should have developed over the course of your time at MHJC. This will take the course of the week - given that our CAT is the first one of the week, additional lessons in class will give you time to either prepare for other CATs or time for homework. Time will also be given to reflect on the content of the CATs & the upcoming work experience so that you can feel fully prepared for the end of the year.

  • TERM 4 WEEK 7

    Work Experience

    This will not be a regular week as there will be little if no time spent within the classroom - as you know, three days this week will be work experience, with the goal of giving a peek into life outside of Mission Heights - you will be a getting a grasp on the level of organisation, community and economy that goes into daily life. Two sessions this week - Monday, Tuesday - will be given towards finalisation & preparation.

    End of Year Reflections + Work Experience Commentary + Fun Times

    This week is basically tidying up, as you will not have more than 15 minutes of classtime at any given point in Week 9. You had a workbook for your Work Experience in Week 7, and you will use that workbook to answer some questions about how that workplace acted, did you feel safe, what did you learn, so on and so forth. It is the chance for both reflection and commentary. Secondly, you will have time in class to do a reflection on your time in MHJC - what did you gain from your time here? What will you take with you?
