Kia Manawanui - Be Big Hearted

Unpacking the words 'Kia Manawanui' (which means Be Big Hearted) was the main focus of the day. This whole week we have been focusing on making connections with others our the syndicate. A significant way of doing this was through a variety of group work and collaboration.

What does Kia Manawanui mean?
  1. We started by working in groups and we were given 2 words - 'Big Hearted'. We were required to think of synonyms/key words and phrases related to this concept. What does Big Hearted mean to men?
  2. We presented our group ideas to the class. 





These are all the words that we came up with as a class - words that mean Kia Manawanui. 

4. We then had to choose a key word - one that we think sums up Kia Manawanui - and design a symbol that represents this word. 


5. We presented our symbol for to the class before displaying it up on the wall. 


This is only our draft copy which is displayed in our school hall. We will be working on completing our good copy in the weeks ahead for our new classroom environment.
