Day 3: Groovy Man (The 1970’s)
Activity 1: Ready to Roll 
In the 1970s one of the most common television programmes was called ‘Ready to Roll.’ It was broadcast on Saturday afternoons and hosted by a man named Roger Gascoigne. During the show, Roger would introduce music videos and then play them for the TV audience. He also invited famous people to come onto the show and perform songs that were currently popular.
Watch the following three clips that were shown on the Ready to Roll programme:

Activity 2: Bell Bottom Pants
Fashion in the 1970s was quite unique. Take a look at the pictures of a ‘typical’ 1970s outfit and tell us, on your blog, two things that you like about 1970s fashion and two things that you don’t like about the fashion of the day. I am not a huge fan of the patterned pants. What about you?
For me, I only like shorts and Classic White T-Shirts. I am not a big fan on Leather jackets and Patterned Pants Like Rachael. I Grew up to Were normal or Classic clothes not Stylish Clothes.
Bonus Activity: A Bilingual Schooling System
For much of the past century, schools in New Zealand taught students in only one language – English. In 1972, Ngā Tamatoa member, Mrs. Hana Jackson, submitted a petition to Parliament to ask the government to include the teaching of Te Reo Māori (the Māori language) and Māori culture in New Zealand schools. We still use petitions to this day when we want an organisation (e.g. a school) to make a change.
Think about your school. What is one thing that you would like change. Would you like to learn about different things? Maybe you think school should only be open 3 days a week?
On your blog, write a letter to your principal to try and convince him/her to make the change. Ensure that your letter is polite and respectful.
Dear Miss Elia.
I am writing this letter to ask you to make some little changes in Glenbrae School. you could add little details to Both seniors and juniors. You could add like some swing sets, More Activity's Out of class, Have music lessons and ask our teachers to add more time on art. You don't have to do all of this but This is just ideas for our school.
