The study investigated how children are enabled to experience mātauranga Māori within an inquiry approach to teaching and learning, through engagement with taongapūoro (singing treasures) and the whakataukī(proverb) ofthe whakapapa (genealogy) ofMāori music as stimuli for creative music-making. Drawing on action research and self-study, I conducted an intervention ofeight music lessons with 28 children from Years 3 and 4. Findings emerged from an analysis ofstudent questionnaires, my teacher journal, student reflections, and scores and audio recordings of students’ creative music-making.  \nIn this article Ifocus specifically on two aspects of my findings:  \n1. The way that the teacher-as-learner position within inquiry pedagogy complements the ethos of ako (reciprocal learning), and the way a holistic, integrated learning approach is supported by the centrality ofinterconnection within te ao Māori.  \n2. The process by which a teacher might use the whakapapa of Māori music as a conceptual framework for inspiring a sound palette of the natural world in children and for scaffolding creative music-making.  \nAs a teacher Ifound that I could establish whanaungatanga (a family-like connection) in the primary music classroom through a relational pedagogy and valuing the children’s individuality through collaborative processes. This small study reinforced my belief that teachers need to take responsibility f","cbCaihLsCUhPD3RA","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihLsCUhPD3RA","pdf",1065380,15,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n## The whakapapa of Māori music and a genealogy of creation\n# Research context\n# Findings and analysis\n## Student questionnaires, teacher journal, and student reflections\n## Scores and audio recordings of creative music-making","[{\"question\":\"What integration does the article focus on in primary music teaching?\",\"answer\":\"It focuses on integrating mātauranga Māori, tikanga Māori, and te ao Māori into primary music classroom practice through an inquiry approach.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the study enable children to experience mātauranga Māori?\",\"answer\":\"Children experience mātauranga Māori through engagement with tāonga pūoro and whakataukī related to the whakapapa of Māori music as stimuli for creative music-making.\"},{\"question\":\"What research methods and materials were used to analyze the intervention?\",\"answer\":\"The study used action research and self-study, analyzing student questionnaires, the teacher’s journal, student reflections, and scores and audio recordings of students’ creative music-making.\"}]","Mātauranga Māori, inquiry and creative music-making in the primary music classroom - A Pākehā teacher's journey - Special Issue | PDF",1792037492,23]
