Big Ideas

Year 4-6 Through building knowledge about contexts and drawing on inquiry practices, I have a deeper understanding of the six big ideas:

E kore au e ngaro; he kākano i ruia mai i Rangiātea.

Māori history is the foundational and continuous history of Aotearoa New Zealand.*

Kaua e uhia te Tiriti o Waitangi ki te kara o Ingarangi. Engari me uhi anō ki tōu kahu Māori, ki te kahu o tēnei motu ake.

Colonisation and settlement

Ko te pipi te tuatahi, ko te kaunuku te tuarua.

Access to power and its use and misuse shape life experiences.

Ki ngā whakaeke haumi.

People participate in communities by acting on their beliefs and through the roles they hold.

Tuia i runga, tuia i raro, tuia i roto, tuia i waho, tuia te muka tāngata.

Relationships and connections between people, across boundaries, and with the environment shape societies.

Culture & Identity

Whakapapa me te whanaungatanga |Culture and identity

This context focuses on familial links and bonds, networks and connections, the importance of respect and obligation, and the stories woven into people’s collective and diverse identities. It recognises the dynamic nature of culture and identity and the social and cultural importance of community practices, heritage, traditions, knowledge, and values.

Rohe and local contexts (the home territory of a particular iwi or tribe.)

Knowledge, stories, and experiences of iwi and hapū and guided by the question What stories do local iwi and hāpu share about this rohe?

Knowledge, stories, and experiences relevant to local communities and guided by the question What stories are told about the people, events, and changes that are important to this area?

Year 4-6 - People’s Cultural Practices can vary but reflect similar purposes.

Thinking Conceptually

I can define and explain a range of big ideas and concepts.

I can discuss the similarities and differences between people’s ideas.

I can give valid examples to illustrate a big idea, and I know which examples aren’t relevant.

Researching

I can ask a range of appropriate questions about the big ideas.

I can use sources (e.g., oral stories and written research) to gather reliable information about a big idea.

I can sort my ideas into key themes and communicate them effectively.

Exploring Values & Perspectives

I can state my opinion, reflect on how I formed it, and acknowledge that it is one of many.

I am open to changing my opinion based on evidence.

I can explain how my view may be different to the views of others.

Taking Social Action

I can use multiple strategies to address a problem.

I can work with others to create a social action plan that takes account of the actions others take in response to similar issues.

I can explain why I chose a particular action and the impact it has had.

Key Questions

How do people who live here express their culture and identity every day?

How do they celebrate on special occasions? How is this different for different groups?

How does this compare to how people express their culture in other places?

Learning Experiences

Explore how people express their culture and identity in everyday ways.

Explore how these ways may vary while having similar purposes (e.g., in the meals people share, their religion and spirituality, how they remember their families and histories, and their relationship with place).
