Lecture 8: Nga mahi kino a Tauiwi

Lecture 8

Nga mahi kino a Tauiwi

Chapter 6 Pg 195 

Appendices 3- Place names

Doctrine of Discovery

  • Mentality of White Christians is that they are superior. Similar to other indigenous cultures.
  • Basis for racism. Entrenched in this culture. Cook approached NZ with this attitude as did Hobson.
  • Outlawed after second world war- 1966
  • 1970s -NZ first developed laws to outlaw racism. International Convention on the Elimination of All forms of Racial Discrimination.
  • NZ has struggled to acknowledge racism that is prevalent and now to fix it.
  • NZ still rely of doctrine of discovery in treaty settlements
  • Results in pakeha ownership, wealth and priveledge accumulation.


Racism- teachers need to protect children from it.

  • - An attitude, not born with it.
  • -races can be ranked in superiortity and inferioroty.
  • - justifies that people can use power to descriminate and deprives others, based on race.
  • -derives from Euro colonisation, justification in the oppressions



Theft 95% of NK lands 1834-20
(Will be in test)
  • Gipps told Hobson sovereignty means "crown owns all land"
  • 'land sales'- none in Tai Tokerau until at least 1900s when Maori could speak English, The maori word did not exist until 1890s hoko whenua- sale of land
  • 'surplus lands'- 1840 Crown issuing titles. Crown asks Pakeha what land do you have from Maori? Pakeha were allowed a certain amount of land. If it was over this allocation, it was claimed by Crown as 'surplus land' rather than given back to hapu. 
  • by fiat - because I said so.
  • 'scrip lands'- some dishonest Pakeha claimed land. If hapu caught them out the crown then gave him some of Ngati Whatua land in Tamaki Makaurau. The Crown then kept the land.
  • 'Crown grant'- this land was sold to Pakeha
  • 'Crown purchase'- 
  • 'consideration'- token money given once land was stolen. Often was promised and not paid or paid to wrong person. Favoritism with certain Maori over others. 
  • Tuku whenua- Maori allowing Pakeha to use land. Pakeha arriving were destitute. Idea was for pakeha to stay with hapu
Kaitaia- several unothorised tuku whenua to missionaries. To hold them in the community. Maori was understanding that they were staying with them on these lands.

Taipa Maheatai- up Oruru and Kohumaru.
  • Land was tuku whenua to Doctor Ford with promise that he would cure Maori of newly introduced diseases. Moved away and became "script land".





1840-1865- Land seizures.
Forcing tuku whenua. Maori opposing therefore crown- divide and rule.
Doctrine of discovery still underlining the attitude.
1930-1970- Consolidation and Land Devel. Maori having multiple shares in multiple areas, govt redispersing Maori ownership. Doc of Discovery attitude again.

1900-1988- Rating of Maori land. Rating against Pakeha lands but the land was not as good so rates could not be paid therefore land was taken. For example Maitai Bay- DOC

Public Works- often used Maori land for roads etc.

2004- Foreshore and Seabed

Pending- SNA. NK plan to oppose this strongly

Socio Economic Impacts


Attempts to destroy language and culture.


Fighting to save te reo
1987- Official language but no support
Kohunga reo, Kura Kaupapa- hugely integral.
Don't experience racism in the same way as mainstream. Therefore more successful.
Reluctant support from government. Underfunded.




TUTORIAL
Diseases- indigenous populations decimated world wide.
Revenge to iwi- blankets with small pox given to them.
Cook - germ warfare throughout Pacific.
Maori caring for sick sailors/whalers etc. Caught diseases.
Maori immunity was not high like Pakeha.

Iwi would like tamariki to understand history and significance of local areas and therefore how can they be kaitiaki of these places? Ensuring that they respect the wahi tapu in there areas.


PACT PD Staff Meeting with Su. 14/9/21

 We explored how to make teacher judgements today using the PaCT tool. Reviewing what we have already covered reminded us that we need to remember to look at what we are taking away from each lesson.

Take aways:

  1. It is important to view the illustrations provided to get a really good idea of what the big ideas really mean for each set/ signpost.

  2. If you think a student(s) is displaying evidence at one signpost then read the descriptions above and below to double check the level of sophistication fits.

  3. The illustrations are also really great ideas for teaching a big idea.

  4. You don’t need to review each student for each set. You would group students to think about where they are to decide your deliberate acts of teaching for the next steps, one aspect at a time.

  5. We will rotate our specific focus each term on reading this year as we familiarise ourselves with these learning progressions. It would be impossible to be thinking about all the aspects for R, W and M constantly!

  6. As always we would use OTJ from a number of evidence sources to decide where students are.

  7. The focus should be less about where students are in terms of giving them a ‘level’ and more about What do I need to teach, and them to learn next”



We took a sample of students work and then looked at each aspect and used the blurb and the illustrations to help us place a student on a sign post. 


A good discussion happened at the end of the hui regarding E-asttle v's PACT tool for end of year assessments. Below are some of the things we took away from this lesson. 

We have noticed ...

...with practice I will get faster at this and more confident with making judgements

…need to change year levels of some students, classes have been set up with names to use now, look at notifications

… writing LPF is good to use. Want to use instead of asstle this year as doubling up. Maybe can for yr1-2??

...would be really valuable to go to experts on staff to moderate with my tricky judgements

PaCT tool - taken lots away. Talking with others about what our kids are doing at different levels, useful to collaborate

Feel confident with it and I want to finish putting them in

… just get it in! You know more than you think you do with your first sense.  Calm the farm a bit - you can’t teach it all

… after so long thinking about it, procrastinating and not doing it. Getting stuff in has been beneficial. SO many opportunities to double check and triple check, so it’s robust and thorough.
