Discovering Aotearoa New Zealand - Yrs 4-6: Bk 2

Our lives in this motu

For primary school teachers, the resource supplies you with plenty of content and activities to create New Zealand history lesson plans. Importantly, the activities also develop inquiry and analytical skills that ākonga will need to tackle the societal challenges they will face in their future.

Along with Book 1 for Years 4 to 6, this book supports ākonga and examines how our governments are elected and their role in our lives, as well as how we use the land and what we have done to protect it. It offers a wide variety of imaginative activities designed to engage ākonga in this significant social sciences learning area while they also develop their literacy and numeracy skills.
