Whakatauki and Kiwaha

Within my teaching philosophy i like the whakatauki " Foster the pathway of knowledge to strength, independence and growth for future generations". This i feel as a teacher i need to follow. If i foster the pathway of knowledge for the children i teach in a positive engaging class then i feel i would give the children strength, independence and let them grow for their own future and their future generations. 

Me he te - Like a boss

I feel the Kiwaha " Like a boss" is a fun saying towards students to boost their confidence and give them praise. Like a boss shows them one day they can be a leader at what they choose to do and encourage them to also support their classmates.
