Indigenous!

Our inquiry this term is Indigenous games.

Before we began talking about games, we first looked at what Indigenous means.

We studied three indigenous cultures

• Aboriginials
• Inuits
• Native Americans

We learnt about how in each of these cultures, somebody came and colonised their land. Often this meant these indigenous people got kicked off their own land, and loss a lot of lives and resources.

To support our learning, we...

Made didgeridoo's...

Watched Pocahontas and studied the lyrics of the songs in it..

And watched films about Inuit whaling...

This helped us to understand how cultures can change over time, and why it is important to keep hold of traditions and cultures.
