Today for Oral Language, we had a discussion with our class about changing the New Zealand flag. We started off with a quick activity called '4-3-2-1'.
- 4 minutes to speed read about all the flags
- 3 minutes to discuss which flag you support with a partner and why
- 2 minutes to share your opinion again with another partner and why
-1 minute to share your opinion with a group of 4
The flag that I chose in my opinion as the best was the Silver Fern (Red, white and blue) I chose this flag because it has a very strong meaning. The southern cross reminds me of how the Maori ancestors found their way around Aotearoa. The blue represents how New Zealand is surrounded by water. I also love how all the colors are eye-catching and very effective.

The Digital Learning Object above was created collaboratively with my group of 4. It showcases how you can make an informed choice when discussing a topic like this. There is information to back up our reasons. We have added all 5 images of the different suggested flags.
