Sequencing days of the week
Using strips of paper 20cm x 4cm, get the students to write Rāhina (Monday) on the first strip and make a loop with it using tape. Then get them to add Rātū (Tuesday) and attach this as a second loop through the Rāhina one. Get them to keep going until they have made a paper chain showing the seven days of the week. This will help them to see that there is an order to the names of the days of the week. You could adapt this activity for number sequences and even the months of the year.
