Four interconnected mātāpono aronui (values) underpin maths learning in Kōwhiti Whakapae. These are: Whatumanawa, Whare, Whānau, Whenua. Learn more about how these four mātāpono aronui underpin create and communicate maths.
Create and communicate maths refers to processes that represent mathematical thinking. This includes creating constructions or models, drawing or creating symbols. All of these are different ways of communicating mathematical thinking.
Knowledge, skills, and attitudes associated with create and communicate maths are woven through all strands of Te Whāriki and are particularly evident in Mana reo | Communication, and Mana aotūroa | Exploration.
Kōwhiti Whakapae is built on four foundations: Te Tiriti o Waitangi, identity, language and culture, inclusion, and the principles of Te Whāriki. Together, these foundations impact teaching and learning in create and communicate maths.
