Great that you are doing something and providing these resources. We found it hard to integrate into our Te Ao Maori (Tikanga and Reo Māori) course as we had already covered some of the activities in various ways but we will try using them in term 4 to aid the process of reflection.

In what ways did this kit empower your students to challenge racism? The best thing was the global & NZ based Challenging... posters (sinophobia, white supremacy etc). We got our students to research one of these in depth, which they were also able to use for their English speech.

How effective was the use of social Media for Fighting Social Injustice Lots of students said they had found new people to follow on Instagram, so that was really cool.
In what ways did the Teacher Journal challenge you? I didn't do the teacher journal.
Overall I enjoyed the Challenging Racism school kit. The best thing was the global & NZ based Challenging... posters (sinophobia, white supremacy etc). We got our students to research one of these in depth, which they were also able to use for their English speech.

How effective was the use of social Media for Fighting Social Injustice I only used some of the resources. The evaluate your teacher resources were useful. The Instagram exercise I gave to the business studies teacher. I have a problem with the concept of branding and linking an anti-racism campaign to marketing. I also didn'
In what ways did the Teacher Journal challenge you? It didn't actually challenge me much because I had already answered a lot of the questions for myself. But I think it would be excellent for someone starting to think about racism and their personal biases.
This is a beautifully packaged kit, very stylish. The journal for teachers would be nicely provocative for someone who is starting to explore their own racial biases. Some of the resources for students were useful but I think others might actually reinforce stereotypes rather than dispel them.

In what ways did this kit empower your students to challenge racism? It helped to facilitate the discussion around representation and biases. However, I feel it could have been more specific to Aotearoa.

In what ways did the Teacher Journal challenge you? This was my favourite piece of the kit. The prompting questions were useful for me and to share with my class. e.g. When was your first encounter with racism? This was a great question and helped us investigate our own upbringings and eachothers storie
There was some good things in there but not as many group resources as I had hoped.

In what ways did this kit empower your students to challenge racism? I am not sure at this point about how well kids feel empowered to challenge others. In a 'safe' classroom situation all can go well however, in a less familiar, more problematic environment kids may struggle. Material id certainly useful...

How effective was the use of social Media for Fighting Social Injustice I think this is a work in progress. Part of this is down to my initial reluctance and the kids not being insta 'fans'.
In what ways did the Teacher Journal challenge you? I have completed some work in this area previously so found journal somewhat useful - alw.ays useful to be reminded
The resource is well set out - provides useful progressions. Could also be adapted for 'one off' focused presentations. The material was accessible.

In what ways did this kit empower your students to challenge racism? We spent most of our time unpacking the acts of revitalisation and reclamation of Maori in New Zealand in the challenging colonisation section of the pack. Students were really keen to then understand how our local Maori were impacted by colonisation whic

In what ways did the Teacher Journal challenge you? I really enjoyed it and tried to share with all our staff with very mixed reactions from them.
Amazing resource that was able to unpack our own New Zealand history and how it connects to what was happening across the world too. Helped students to understand that
