Reflective Question: What do I do to actively engage in respectful working relationships with Māori learners, parents and whānau, hapu, iwi, and the Māori community?
I have made a conscious effort to learn some basic Māori vocabulary so that I can begin to incorporate it effortlessly into my daily dialogue with all of my class, which includes Māori, Pasifika, and Pākehā, amongst others. Our topic this term(Term 1) is Papatuanuku in connection to our overall theme this yea,r kaitiakitanga. Students are learning about kaitiakitanga. Students looked closely at the school villages and tribes. From this, they looked further into New Zealand's history and colonisation and its impact on our environment. We researched how the economy was. I looked further into this myself to create interactive and fun activities for my whole class to enjoy.
