What would you say the impact of this kit has been on your students? The students enjoyed the Rainbow Warrior history and where it lyes today. They loved that it happened in our backyard and how Kiwis conquered the French! The political side was quite in depth and allowed challenge for the students that wanted / needed it.
Which resources were most engaging and most useful to students? The online sites gave great information about a huge range of topics. Loved the music cassettes!!
This kit had great resources, we loved the wall displays and the digital sites. The Rainbow Warrior was a fascinating topic that created many discussions within the class and gave the opportunity for local, national and global insights.

What would you say the impact of this kit has been on your students? Students now have an awareness of the impact of nuclear weapons and why testing/nuclear potential is not supported in NZ.
Which resources were most engaging and most useful to students? I thought the timeline was engaging as it could be displayed in the classroom for students to refer back to.
It was great to see students in my class research their tickets and place them on the timeline. We then looked to see if there were any patterns of where their tickets were placed and discussed if they were in the correct category. Students then created a slideshow with key facts about their chosen event. Resources and website were useful too!

What would you say the impact of this kit has been on your students? My students really enjoyed this kit and it has opened their eyes to how historical actions have an impact on them today. They also have a greater understanding of the concern over Russia using nuclear weapons.
Which resources were most engaging and most useful to students? The website with all the digital resources was good. Students were able to understand the written text and the videos were an excellent resource.
My students learned so much about how New Zealand came to be nuclear free. The kit generated some awesome critical thinking about the cost of nuclear warfare and different opinions around the use of nuclear weapons and power.

Which resources were most engaging and most useful to students? Students liked the videos and the stories of the soldiers that were involved at operation grapple.
Really enjoyed it. An awesome piece of New Zealand history that the students weren't aware of. Timeline was cool to put up and was clearly set out in 4 different times/ events that helped.
