Considering our identity within intentional teaching
"If you want to know me, you first have to know yourself." – Ministry of Education, New Zealand, Te Tāhuhu o te Mātauranga, 2018
Delve into cultural identity within intentional teaching, underpinned by Tapasā. Engage in talanoa to see how your understanding of yourself impacts your image of a child, and how this brings genuine engagement with tamariki and their fanau.
