Te Tiriti o Waitangi


This week we have been learning about the Treaty of Waitangi by accessing different text types and media.

In groups we needed to firstly access the information and gather the main ideas of Who, What, Where, Why and When. We had journal stories, websites, youtube videos and more.

We then had to summarise the information into sentences using key words. Even though we all picked out different words, the main idea of the treaty are the 3 Ps.

The 3 Ps are Protection, Partnership and Participation. This is what the treaty set out to achieve.

We then had to evaluate our new learnings and think of questions that we want to find more information on.

An interesting fact I have learnt was that The Treaty of Waitangi was not signed to have peace between the land but instead to get protection from the british crown. I think that is interesting because people think that the treaty was signed to have peace between Britain and Aotearoa.
