TC Sos Dept #7: Manaiakalani Secondary Social Studies Department Discussion #2 CREATE

This week our department took part in the CREATE workshop, hosted by Kerry Boyde-Preece and Naomi Rosedale, as part Manaiakalani’s department discussions.  



Scott and I talked about a collaborate unit between one of my year 9 Social Studies classes, their Te Reo teacher Matua Harley and their graphics teacher Ms Spark to design an app to support learning about our local curriculum.  Matua Harley provided the context, I developed the concepts and Ms Spark helped students design the app.  We shared it was at the early stages of development and we still had some tweaks to fine tune the unit.  


We heard from teachers at Hornby High and Waiopehu College who shared what they were up to it and Kerry shared some cool resources that me and my team want to try out in the future.
