Minecraft Education Refugee Camp

 

Over the past three weeks in literacy, we have been reading about refugees and looking at what refugee camps look like.  

Do you know that there are millions of refugees currently living in refugee camps all over the world.  These people have had to flee their home countries due to war, unrest, famine, riots, terrorist attacks and more.  Some have been living in these camps for years, with no sign of leaving.

The conditions are terrible.  There are lots of disease, crowded living areas, they are hot in summer and freezing in winter.

Our task was to recreate a refugee camp in Minecraft education, incorporating all the things we had learnt about them.

Have you ever read or watched anything about refugees before?

Then a boy comes and sees if He is okay. 

The treaty of Waitangi

Hi bloggers today in class we were sent off to create a script that talks about the issues with the Treaty of Waitangi. Then we had to get our information from our script and then We made a video on voki. The Maori were angry with the treaty because the British did,t give them what they wanted. And the British did not want to share there land with the Maori.
