Finding Out - WALT: explore, investigate and gather new information.
We worked together in groups and researched some unique New Zealand symbols.
We then used our new knowledge, and taught the rest of the class about what the symbol represents and why it is unique/special to New Zealand. We will be adding these to ou New Zealand Cultural Wheel on our Inquiry wall.
We have used the 'White Hat' to record our new information.
