I am so happy to be able to offer these 5 products as a bundle!
They are a real fun activity, with the possibility of learning 52 words ncluded from the curriculum, 100 words every New Zealander should know and New Zealand cultural items!
“Te Whenua” are a collection of 18 landform or whenua flags, in both te reo Māori/English and te reo Māori only.
These words are components of many of our Aotearoa/New Zealand place names.
Learners will illustrate the kupu on the flag. Could be completed as a group activity and presented to the class.
Flags, banners, ensigns, haki, maitairangi, kara call them what you like. Tamariki love these and seeing them displayed around the classroom is empowering and represents a bicultural commitment to your learners enriching your teaching environment.
These would work well for any age group, primary, intermediate or secondary.

10 Whakataukī
The whakataukī are:
**Although small it is precious
**The bird that partakes in the miro owns the bush, the bird that partakes in knowledge owns the world
**The world is yours
**A person with narrow vision has restricted horizon
A person with wide vision has plenty of opportunities
**If you pluck out the centre shoot of the flax where will the bellbird sit?
If you ask me “What is the most important thing in the world?” I will tell you. “It is people. people people.
**The food of chiefs is dialogue
**Hold fast to faith, hope and love
**With my food basket and your food basket the people will be nourished
**Let me soar to the heavens so that I may reach my potential
**Only a small thing, given with love
The whakataukī have been carefully selected as they relate to growth mindset and values.
These are a print and go resource which means they require little preparation for the teacher :-) with a huge reward when they are completed.
Last but definitely not least awesome whakatauki in the form of a banner . Akonga can take home at the end of the week to display or gift!
