  • FOCUS / ARONGA

    FOCUS / ARONGA learning intentions:


    We are FOCUSING on the New Zealand Land Wars by comparing the perspectives of the Crown and iwi.

    We are FOCUSING on the three foundational documents by explaining the significance of He Whakaputanga o te Rangatiratanga o Nu Tireni | The Declaration of Independence.

    We are FOCUSING on Pre-1840 by discussing the interactions between the Crown and Māori.


                                                                                           Success Criteria: I can...


    • I can evaluate the significance of He Whakaputanga o te Rangatiratanga o Nu Tireni | The Declaration of Independence.
    • I can compare and contrast the varying wants and perspectives of the crown with those of iwi and identify similarities and differences.
    • I can discuss key interactions between Māori and Pākeha during this period.


                                                                                      Achievement Objectives:


    SOSC KNOW: 


    Communities create rules for belonging and systems to maintain order. These rules and systems are not always fair for all people.


    ANZH KNOW: 


    Te Tiriti o Waitangi | The Treaty of Waitangi: background - The signings of He Whakaputanga o te Rangatiratanga o Nu Tireni | The Declaration of Independence and Te Tiriti o Waitangi | The Treaty of Waitangi emerged from a long period of complex interactions between hapū/iwi and newcomers in which Māori were the majority. These interactions, particularly those with missionaries, helped to facilitate the treaty process. Also important were the international events and ideas of the time that informed the Crown’s thinking and actions.
