Teacher - Alternative Introduction
An inclusive classroom resource supporting students who may not have Māori whakapapa or who may not know their iwi, hapū or ancestral connections.
This printable activity allows students to participate in identity-based learning while respecting the cultural significance of pepeha. Students are guided to share information about themselves, their family, home and community through a structured introduction format and creative drawing activity.
The included Teacher & Whānau Guide provides practical implementation support and suggestions for meaningful classroom discussions.
