“I taught this with a Year 7/8 class. We were looking at the Aotearoa Histories curriculum as a school for the first time. Our big understanding was around how power has shaped the course of NZs history. This kit supported student learning and aligned perfectly with our big idea. The examples provided were highly engaging for the students and clearly showed how individuals/groups/organisations exert and contest power. This kit was great for opening up discussion and allowing students to look at their own perceptions and unconscious bias.”

“Absolutely useful in its relevance and as a tool of engagement for my students. We were looking in depth into the Chinese Poll Tax and the resources given within the kit (both physical and digital) aided my class in putting themselves into the shoes of those who were subjected to racism in the past. Will definitely be using for years to come.”

“I used this resource for my Y10s in Term 1 to facilitate a Unit plan on Movers & Movements that explores the Black Civil Rights Movement, BLM, South African Apartheid, & the responses that challenge societal inequities. The students loved learning the concepts that were provided in the 'Not In My Book' resource and seeing how these appeared in the topics but also within their own lives. The resources also allowed us to explore further issues that need challenging and ways of exploring these within the classroom. Such as making Social Media a source that can be used for both good & bad.”
