NOW LOADING… Te Tuhi pre visit: Lesson 2

Welcome to now loading During this lesson we will explore… The kinds of technology people use Image: But before we start, let’s recap on what we learnt during our last lesson…

During our last lesson we learnt that to make something Abstract… can include thinking about the many things in the world that have basic shapes. we can use colour to help describe an object. Colour can often be a feature. like an object, we can carefully look for basic shapes the object has. can show an object in a very different way. rectangle

Let’s explore the kinds of technology people use…

Let’s start by asking…what is technology? Technology is something that helps connect people to one another. Technology can help share and access information from all around the world. Technology can help capture people, animals and places. Technology is used by many different people young and old. Technology can help share stories from books to movies. Technology can make things possible like landing on the moon. Technology can help keep people alive and healthy. Technology can help people travel from place to place. Technology can help see the world in a different way. Technology can help build cars, planes, roads and cities.

Technology can involve using a tool that has been made to help achieve a task or solve a problem. Not all technology is electronic. Technology can be very small to very large. Image: topjpg/ %7Cimages%7Cfujifilm-finepix-x100-vs-olympus-pen-ep2-top*jpg/ Here is some technology you may recognise.

This is technology also, because they have been made specifically to achieve a task. Image:

Many people use technology for very different reasons. To think a little more about these objects let’s tag each one thinking about the kind of profession you may have to use such objects. Builder Roofer Furniture maker Now tag the rest and remember more than one person may use this technology in their job. Photographer Mechanic Engineer Builder Chef Butcher Mathematics Teacher Accountant Doctor Nurse Painter Builder Roofer Receptionist Telephone operator Movie Director Science Teacher Scientist Can you think of any others that might use this technology in their profession? Let’s start with the hammer. What profession requires a tool like a hammer?

Now that we have reflected on different technology people use, let’s think about technology our parents may use.

Parent’s Technology Our Technology What kind of technology would our parents use? Can you think of other technology our parents might use? What technology do we use?Can you think of other kinds of technology we might use? Some times we use the same technology and sometimes certain technology is used more by us or our parents.

Let’s recap on what we have learnt so far… Now that we have reflected on the kinds of technology people use…

is used by different people, young and old from all around the world for a variety of things big or small. is made to help us achieve a task or to help solve a specific problem. specific technology can be tools used by particular professionals. Technology… So what have we learnt so far? Chief Butcher Movie Director Science Teacher Scientist

End of lesson We hope you’ve enjoyed learning about abstract painting and the kinds of technology people use over the last few lessons. We will use what we have learnt during our visit to Te Tuhi and the activities we participate in.

We look forward to having you all here End of lesson
