How did this kit help your students to discuss the idea of multiple perspectives? We were able to use the character cards to help create a discussion. It could have easily lead to a debate. The students enjoyed the chance to write from the perspective of their character card and then listen to others writing.
How has this kit changed your perspective on teaching NZ History? It has given me some great ideas about how to make teaching history more practical and hands on.
This kit was great! It was well liked by both the students and myself. The students found thinking about things from a different perspective incredibly interesting. They were very engaged and there were some very good discussions about what it might have been like to have been on both sides of the situation. There are lots of interesting learning opportunities across the curriculum with this kit.

How has this kit changed your perspective on teaching NZ History? This kit didn't change my perspective on teaching history as this is an area I am passionate about - it is just great that resources are being produced that support NZ History.

I found this product very good. And the students found lots of things to discuss about. They loved the props and the historical element to it. I would love to see more like this in the future especially on different aspects of kiwi history. It has also taught me more about nz history as I am not a New Zealander.

How did this kit help your students to discuss the idea of multiple perspectives? The conversations out year 5/6 had with one and other about multiple perspectives were very valuable. They asked many thoughtful questions and some managed to view our rich history from a range of viewpoints.

This kit was a huge success in our learning space. Our tamariki loved making connections and exploring our rich history. We loved all of the goodies that came in this school kit, the student made connections to figures of New Zealand’s past. It was very interesting to see a range of perspectives and become more educated about how our past has shaped the world we know today.

How did this kit help your students to discuss the idea of multiple perspectives? It really helped them understand and relate to other people's viewpoints and how everyone has their own opinion which may not tell the whole story. It was great to see this understanding transfer into the everyday classroom interactions.
How has this kit changed your perspective on teaching NZ History? It will be an area I will teach again and look for further aspects in NZ history to teach.
This was a fantastic inquiry unit. Both myself and the students learnt a great deal about a part of history we had no prior knowledge of.
