Picturebooks for Matariki

Educators, register below to join this free online professional learning session on Thursday, 25 May, 4:00–4:45 pm.

In this webinar Greta Dromgool will be joined by picture book expert Associate Professor Nicola Daly (co-director of the Waikato Picturebook Research Unit at the University of Waikato) to discuss some of her research into bilingual picturebooks and to share the rich opportunities picturebooks offer our teaching and learning around Matariki. 

This session will be valuable for all educators as the content links strongly to science and literacy in the New Zealand curriculum and upholds mana ōrite mō te mātauranga Māori. 

Throughout the presentation we will share free digital articles, videos and activities to support teachers with the connected science concepts. 

Please note that Greta and Nicola are both of Pākehā descent.

We look forward to you joining us. 

A reminder email will be sent before the webinar.
