The impact my planning has made for my profile children!
How have my learning plans made an impact on my children's learning?
Since I started planning and writing learning stories for my profile children I have noticed the difference between planning with no whanau voice compared to a plan with whanau voice can make a huge impact on the child's learning. I can identify what learning disposition a child needs to develop however if I do not receive whanau input on their learning story I would not know how to apply child's cultural knowledge towards my planning to help further develop their next learning steps. This is the reason why I use Tataiako to help me fill in the missing information needed. I believe Tataiako and Rose Pere's Te Wheke model help me scaffold children's learning and help me relate educational models to real-life educational scenarios which make a huge impact on children's learning.
Tātaiako: Cultural Competencies for Teachers of Māori Learners (Ministry of Education 2011) provides a framework that can support professional development and learning for teachers, leaders, and aspiring principals.
In Māori culture, Rangimārie Rose Pere’s (1997) model of well-being called Te Wheke, based on the eight tentacles of the octopus, sees all aspects of Māori life and health as interconnected, enabling an inclusion of family, spirituality, and ancestors.
Upon reflection, I have noticed the positive impact whanau voice can make on children's learning. So I plan to include more whanau voice via Story Park, email, text messaging, talking to whanau when they do drop offs and pick ups and if urgent making phone calls home.
