Pacific Islanders in WW1

Pacific Islanders in WW1


WALT use descriptive language to add detail


A group of soldiers from New Zealand and Australia went to fight in the war. They were known as the ANZACs (Australian and New Zealand Army Corps). Some Pacific Islanders went to war too.


Task 1: Watch the videos about the Pacific Islanders who went to war.




Task 2:


Choose a Pacific Island:
Tonga
Samoa
Cook Islands
Fiji
Niue


Research your chosen Island and write some vocabulary about it:
It is hot
It has a lot of food
It looks beautiful 
It is very cool 









Task 3: Pretend you are someone from your chosen Pacific Island who has volunteered to serve in World War 1. Write a letter to someone back home.
  • What do you miss from home? [Research your Island for this]
  • What is your job?
  • Where are you and how did you get there?
  • What do you smell, hear, see, touch, taste?
  • When will you be home?
