W.A.L.T Understand where Syria is.
In Room 2 we have been learning about Syria and the war that started in 2011. We went on google maps and we were told to find Syria,Damascus, Homs on google maps. Damascus is the capital of Syria! We have been looking at the amazing traditional clothing and dances. We had to make a google drawing about Syria and all the different places! Here is mine:)
W.A.L.T Write a brief recount,
On Monday the 10th of May the senior syndicate to the red zone!
We had lots of tasks and activities. When we first got at the red zone our first task was to act like a Refugee trying to escape. When the teacher blew the whistle we had to hide and not get seen and blend in with natures natural habitats. Hiding was challenging at first but we all managed to get the hang of it.
Our second activity,
For our second activity we paired up one person got blindfolded and the other person had to lead them through the field cones were scattered everywhere and also thrown at your feet if your buddy who is blindfolded touches the cones they die not for real of course.
Our third activity,
Its pretty simple we ate rice. We pretend we were Refugees who just escaped at found a camp and all we get is rice. We brought rice in rice cookers and all had a handful each. The rice was very, very hot.
Our last activity,
For our last activity we had to build shelters here is an example:
It was quite hard but I really enjoyed it there were not many trees so it was challenging.
Over all I really enjoyed the red zone Refugee walk. Building shelters was the most challenging part! What would be your favourite activity?
Why did we do the Refugee walk?
Because we have been learning about Refugees. We have been thinking how they are just normal people just like you and me and then it all suddenly changes. Running away from home because it isn't safe anymore people abandoned their homes with nothing but the clothes on their back.
