Fraser Cres, Koraunui are some schools that weave these (karakia and waiata) into their programme as 'norms']]> 2018-10-22 20:37:07 UTC https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/295693184 https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/295704768 Referring back to the 'inspiration station' model... could OCS give learners the opportunity to explore their interests and teach others/their teachers about their passions?]]> 2018-10-22 21:16:09 UTC https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/295704768 https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/295723826 I know that I pronounce the names of my  Maori students correctly as I have asked them and they have confirmed. I incorporate tuakana teina within my classroom as I ask students who have mastered a task to share their knowledge with students who are still working on it. Going forward I will try to incorporate more te reo into my classroom to show my students that I am still learning and give them the opportunity to teach me.

I say good morning to the 1st child on the roll in Te Reo, the child responds with how she is feeling at that time (i Te Reo). This child then finds the next child on the roll and makes eye contact with them and goes through the same sequence. This goes on through the whole class. The last child says good morning to me (i Te Reo)]]> 2018-10-23 01:10:14 UTC https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/295746856 https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/295752839 Greet students for the roll in Te Reo, maybe there is something further we can do - karakia to start the day? Karakia could become a norm in each class, pod, syndicate, rather than being something that is scary when it comes to a big assembly, same goes for waiata. ]]> 2018-10-23 01:36:29 UTC https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/295752839 https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/296265413 When taking the roll I use greetings in Te Reo as well as singing out commands in Te Reo to get students attention. I would love to see a Karakia introduced into our school - a school wide one. I grew up with this at my own primary school and I think it is a great way to bring students together as well as to be more culturally inclusive.]]> 2018-10-24 02:48:49 UTC https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/296265413 https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/297865610 We call the roll in the afternoons, and they are able to choose whether to reply in Te Reo or English.
We sing the farewell song in Te Reo and English each day.
I'll also work on incorporating more games including instructions in Te Reo.  ]]> 2018-10-29 03:46:38 UTC https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/297865610 https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/297865639 Ka Hikitia: Productive Partnerships

I greet my students in te reo and english
Going forward: extend my knowledge of te reo I could use in the classroom and implement it - make it natural]]> 2018-10-29 03:51:34 UTC https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/297866384 https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/308012140 I use basic greetings and commands throughout my day so it is becoming more natural. I have been trying to learn new phrases by asking Whaea Sandra and Koka Tangi their pronunciation and getting them to write it down as this is how I learn. Students use it through greetings when calling the roll and singing ka kite at the end of the day. I plan to use more next year as I will have some students I have taught in the past so will be able to extend their learning. ]]> 2018-11-26 20:26:00 UTC https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/308012140 https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/308070377 On a daily basis I greet and farewell the students. I use simple commands throughout the day for instruction. I participate with the students during Kapa Haka time which is taken by Whaea Sandra. I co-teach with Koka Tangi to introduce the students to new learning and new vocabulary. She helps me with the correct pronunciation of the language. I plan to increase my vocabulary and use more te reo/instruction in the classroom. Also I will introduce the students to karakia.A moment to reflect on:
'I noticed that one of the senior Maori students was not in a good space so took the time to strengthen our relationship'.]]> 2018-11-27 00:00:22 UTC https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/308070377 https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/332458834 I am now confident in using basic commands in the classroom.  I have made sure I check with students that I am saying their names correctly. 
I plan on doing some reading and research into ka hikitia, Tataiako
and te whariki and seeing how I can use this to improve my competency.

I include the use of body language to communicate what I am instructing them to do. When the opportunity arises I share information around 'what it is to be Maori' as in why we do the things we do our belief systems. An example is the use of facial expressions and hands to communicate - we are an express people. When setting POD expectations around common communal cultural practices, such as hats, combs and bottoms on tables, I inform the kids that these are linked to hygiene.
Questions I have: Due to colonisation and urbanisation how would our people have naturally evolved over time, especially in light of the knowledge that they were entrepreneurial prior to European settlement?]]> 2019-02-19 07:23:47 UTC https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/332565069 nathanr2 https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/363885879 28/5/19
Having a think about our school logo and the narrative that supports that.  Especially the concept of Turangawaewae - a place to stand.
Sharing this narrative on our website and on display at the front of the school. Also a Whanaungatanga display with key events that connect us all parents, teachers and students. ]]> 2019-05-28 04:04:48 UTC https://padlet.com/kathe_tp/hlz6gjb65ccu/wish/363885879
