Whakapapa Inquiry - Celebrating our Learning!


As part of our Whakapapa Inquiry we found out about our own identity and culture. What a great way to demonstrate our Learner Attribute, "I am Connected." 

We spent time at home making our own presentations about our own whakapapa. We shared and celebrated these during the last week of term 2. 


We have been writing reports about identity. Here are some snippets:

What is identity? 

Identity is what makes you, you. It is about what you are in life. It is like how you look and it’s all about you. It is who you are. What makes you unique is that you're different from others and you are great. Imagine the world with everyone looking the same. We are all different in a special way. You might see things differently, like when you're in a lesson. There are a lot of things you can do. You are INCREDIBLE! You can be whoever you want. No one can change that. I think your life will be great.
By Zor

Identity is who you are. You can be whoever you like. My identity means I like surfing, mountain biking, scootering, friends and family.
By Jack

Identity is what makes me me. People are different in religion, culture and values. An example is I like to play fortnite and my family is special to me.
By Christian

Gender
Gender is a part of our identity. People are usually born with male parts or female parts. Sometimes a boy or a girl can chose if they are a boy or a girl. Boys and girls can like different things like a girl can like… trains, cars, lego, blocks, water guns and boys can like dolls, pink, tea sets, soft toys and rainbows. It is ok for boys and girls to like boy stuff or girl stuff and this is a part of our identity.

Religion 
Religion is people who believe in god and believe in more things it is also a relationship to higher power! An example of religion is other countries believe in a other type of god. And some don’t even have a god they believe in a higher state.

Personality
Personality is also part of what makes you, you. It is how you act, your thoughts, feelings and strengths. For example, my strengths are love of learning and kindness.we don’t all have the same feelings, thoughts, behaviour and acts. For example, I don’t have the same feelings has my friends. We all have different likes and dislikes. For example I like drawing, reading and playing and my dislikes are avocado and video games.
By Dhitya

Personality is also what you like to do, what you believe in like, what you dislike, who you like to play with. For example I like to play football. I like to play goalkeeper and strike my friends also like to play football a lot. I also like bunnies, rabbits and cute animals. I really like to run a lot too!

Ethnicity 
Ethnicity is part of your culture and your language. Ethnicity is a group of people who identify with each other. They can share common language, history and nationality. For example spanish people can have the same ethicity.

Values
Values are your strengths and beliefs. It is what you believe in, not necessarily religion. My values are love of learning and perseverance.
By Samuel

Religion
Religion can also be part of identity. Religious people believe in god, or gods. Some religions don’t have gods. Maori have many gods. In Christianity there is one god.
