The events of Parihaka happened in the 1880s. It was when the the New Zealand government sent troops in to take Maori land and then they sold all the land to the people who just arrived from England. The people of Parihaka were forced to find a new place to live because the troops burnt their houses and destroyed their crops. The Maori chiefs, Te Whiti and Tohu were put in prison for no reason and didn't even get a trial.
We had to think about what the soldiers were feeling like when they walked into Parihaka.
I found it easy to insert the soldiers.
I found it tricky to think of what to write on my blog.
My digital learning object shows I can insert a Google slide to my blog.
