| Description | (May 2009) This topic is an important part of Tikanga, which we haven’t done that well in the past. It does need re-shaping. I have been doing it at Year 12 for a long time but now I’ve started to incorporate it into Year 11 as well, because it is so important. We need to introduce it at Year 11, and develop it further in Year 12. In this resource I have described what I currently do at Year 12, and then what I plan to do in the future. I use this unit to prepare students for Achievement Standards on communication aspects, but using the Tangihanga as the context for learning the necessary communication skills. Author: Tihi Puanaki |
