Teachers notes:
The lesson is developed for teaching a Maori unit of work, which is multi-layered (Integrated Curriculum). A Global perspective is implemented to allow the diverse range of student – like in a New Zealand context – to engage in a meaningful way. It includes Maori culture (indigenous people of New Zealand) and the students are challenged to research the heroes and heroines from other cultures. Students are prompted to compare the different heroes of Maori and other cultures (Venn diagram). The different categories of heroes are touched on. The lesson progressed, asking students to identify, not only the traits of their heroes but also the heroic characteristics in their own lives. For example, resilience could be an identified trait of the student. The student is asked to research how resilience or strength are developed for young people. Lastly, the students are asked to type up a strategy on how they could develop their own traits associated with heroism. Just to complete High School is a great accomplishment! See the Haki Te Tuna story (eel/freshwater fish) which explains the barriers (dangers and distractions) in the booklet. The story depicts an eel (high school student) who has to navigate its path through the Waikato River (NZ) to reach the sea (wide world after completing High School).
There are many barriers – students are asked to identify those barriers (e.g. drugs, the influence of friends, family relationships, and more). Students are also prompted to consider their model for Health. The Maori model Te Whare Tapa Wha has 4 significant walls, Family, Spiritual, Mental, and Physical. The question to students is “What are the 4 x necessary walls for your Health. Students have indicated in the past ideas like Money, Food, Sleep, Social Media, and more as essential walls (support). Students have to make a simple sketch of a building and label these substantial walls in their lives. The lesson concludes with a game of Minecraft, namely Superheroes (fun component).

Remember the models we discussed? See the copy to refresh your memory. Shown is the model of a Japanese student, a Pakeha (European) student, a student that believes in science only (belief system), and a Maori student. See the contrasts by comparing the 4 walls of each model. It illustrates the diversity and uniqueness of cultures and people living together in a very diverse society – for example, New Zealand. Think about your personal Te Whare Tapa Wha. What are those important walls you chose for your wellbeing? Use your model in this lesson to design and develop the trait or traits you are focusing on!

MAORI HERO
HONE HEKE CHOPS DOWN THE BRITISH FLAG FOR THE THIRD TIME: The first Māori to sign the Treaty of Waitangi, Ngāpuhi chief Hōne Heke Pōkai soon became disenchanted with the consequences of colonisation. He expressed his outrage by repeatedly attacking the flagstaff on the hill above Kororāreka (Russell).
Hōne Heke chopping down the British flag is an enduring image in New Zealand history. Traditional Pākehā interpretations portrayed him as a ‘rebel’ who was finally subdued by ‘good Governor’ George Grey. In reality, questions of authority in the north remained unresolved well after 1840, years in which the Bay of Islands also lost its political and economic importance.
Te Haratua, Heke’s right-hand man, first attacked the flagstaff in July 1844. The British re-erected it, but it was levelled twice in January 1845. A fourth attack on the flagstaff on 11 March signalled the outbreak of war in the north.
The ‘Flagstaff War’ was no simple matter of Māori versus British – two Ngāpuhi factions squared off against each other. Heke and Kawiti fought both the Crown and Ngāpuhi led by Tāmati Wāka Nene. The fighting ended in a stalemate in January 1846 (see 11 January).
