February 28th: Treaty of Waitangi and Class Treaty

Kia ora whānau,

Room 9 explored the Treaty of Waitangi over the first few weeks of class. This included reading a school journal which can be found, along with an accompanying audio file, in a presentation Te Tiriti o Waitangi. 

This is a quite challenging text so we focused a lot on the vocabulary. Here you can see students' definitions on our Pānui wall.

We also used the study of the Treaty of Waitangi as an introduction into creating our own class treaty. This has now been discussed, read and signed by everyone in Room 9.
