Tuakana teina refers to the relationship between an older (tuakana) person and a younger (teina) person and is specific to teaching and learning in the Māori context.
In our first tuakana teina lesson, we teamed up with a younger class (Pukeko) and taught the them how to create a volcano. To create this experiment, all you need is an empty bottle, baking soda and vinegar. We also used our school's sandpit to build the volcano! A chemical reaction occurs when you add vinegar to the baking soda - it creates a gas called carbon dioxide.
Enjoy the video!
Hi Tuatara class, That sounds fun what did you put in the bottles? Did you put coke and mentos? What class are your buddies? How old are they? Where abouts did you do this experiment?

ReplyDeleteHi my name is Keylee my school is Mangonui. No, we did not put coke and mentos in the bottles. We put baking soda and vinegar in the empty bottle. The Young kids are 5 years old. We did the experiment at the sand pit.
