Poipoia te kakano, Kia puawai! Nurture the seed and it will blossom. There is nothing more inspiring than bringing a group of innovative teachers together to talk about ways in which they have connected and built relationships with their Māori learners and their whānau. This was the take-away from our session in Term 1, and some great insights were gained as teachers took time to really engage with their Māōri learners and share what worked, what they found out and how they knew they had been successful. We worked on what critical questions remain for us in this space, and will be looking at how we can continue to deepen our practice. DEEP DIVE - know better, do better! We spent some time digging deeply into case studies and research in order to inform our next steps in relation to our teaching practice = praxis. We then created a visual image to show the journey and our thinking - an example from Houghton Valley School is included. Here are links to some of the materials we were looking at - you may like to take some time to check these out yourself, and think about how these could impact your own practice:
