How did this kit build awareness and understanding of the NZ Navy and it's contributions to our history? Opportunity to teach with research that a teacher might probably never access unless they want to deliberately do this specific point in NZ history

What would you say the impact of this kit has been on your students? Seeing NZ take the first steps to becoming this thing that their whanau hand them have only known as normal.
Which resources were most engaging and most useful to students? Kids loved finding interviews, videos online and our search skills developed wonderfully! https://read.bookcreator.com/SvIMLwagrnMb3dJRmyaPf8SMaRm2/ne8-DNHlSUWIUSZT5icdDQ Hope you like the book!
“Where to start? What amazing learning came out of this unit! Students interviewed whanau who were alive through the 80's and presented their interview as a poster looking at pop culture, Nuclear Power/war feelings, and aspects of important news of the day. Students then collected an artifact and began researching to create a page withion our Bomb Gone Book on bookcreator.”

How did this kit build awareness and understanding of the NZ Navy and it's contributions to our history? None of my students had any whanau who were involved in the NZ Navy, so learning about what happened on Christmas Island and about the Rainbow Warrior sinking was new learning for them. The teacher shared her own story about visiting / seeing the Rainbow

What would you say the impact of this kit has been on your students? The students in this class struggled with the concept of being nuclear free as it is not something that they have grown up even knowing about. The main impact for these stuents is that they now have some knowledge of our nuclear free histories.
Which resources were most engaging and most useful to students? All the resources were engaging for the students. They picked up the newspaper articles and we had to do several lessons about the way they hd been written and the emotive language used in them.
“My students found this kit a challenge to engage with. We felt like it would have been more suited to an older age group that Y7. As the teacher, I thought it would be insteresting for the students to learn about, knowing that some of their relatives may have been active in the nuclear free protests in NZ, but we struggld to find any of our whanau who knew anything. That being said, the stdeunts now have some knowledge of a time in our histories that continues to impact upon our lives in the current day.”
