The Same Game
The Same Game, a big book for “reading to” students, is a set of resources, big book, audio, and teacher notes, intended to help foster the curriculum principles of diversity and inclusion.
We are preparing to close this site as we transition to Tāhūrangi.
Tāhūrangi is the new online curriculum hub for Te Tāhuhu o te Mātauranga | Ministry of Education.
The Same Game is intended to support students to recognise and appreciate their similarities and differences. Set in the familiar world of school, it will stimulate connections to students’ own experiences and may even motivate them to take action to create a culture of belonging in their community.
Teaching and learning activities go deeper into the perspectives of the characters and the themes of diversity, inclusion, and empathy.
