Mantle plan for year ones

A lovely plan here as prepared and taught by Rebekah Whyte from Tauranga

“Flicker the Penguin” was a Mantle of the Expert unit inspired by the Rena disaster. Children in Rebekah’s year 0-1 new entrant class learned about the impact of the disaster (which happened on their local beach) through their role as animal rescuers.

This was Rebekah’s first attempt at a Mantle of the Expert Unit. She plans and reflects in such detail, this document is a great read.  After you have read and enjoyed it – watch this space! The children in the class also developed a documentary movie (to be uploaded later). Many thanks Rebekah for sharing this with us …

    Hi Rebekah,

    Fabulous work. I love your linking to both the curriculum and the tensions. Your reflections are great and offer an insight into how the work progressed. Hopefully you are coming to the DNZ conference and can share more with us.
