The Hikairo Schema for Primary: Culturally responsive teaching and learning - Paperback

This adaptable guide invites kaiako to rethink approaches to engaging ākonga, re-envisage the teacher/learner dynamic, revise old habits, and reconfigure learning environments to acknowledge and embrace cultural differences. Kaiako can use The Hikairo Schema for Primary several times over, drawing on their previous experiences to inform and to develop new and innovative ways of facilitating culturally sensitive and inclusive learning settings.

Kaiako can adapt The Hikairo Schema for Primary to fit not only their own needs, but their own pace and level of comfort.
