Narrative - The Leather Satchel

In this presentation you'll notice that the eldest has to do everything and have everything too in this family because they couldn't afford enough money for all children to have something like the leather satchel.

WALT: a. Students will explore how people in Aotearoa New Zealand make choices and take action that makes a significant contribution to New Zealand Society.  (Historically and currently)b. Students explore the idea of a national New Zealand identity and the ways it is represented.
________________________________________________________________________________
Identity is a word that describes our personalities and our family too or who we are. Some people don't know their families or they don't know themselves which can make them feel alone or unwanted. In the image above it shows a person standing there with  a side with black text, and a side with purple text. The purple text are examples of words to describe how you could feel if you don't know your relatives, and the black text are examples of words that describe how you could feel when your brain is full of many of your relatives that you know.
