Beloved novelist Witi Ihimaera has been in New Zealand classrooms for years and we have created some new teacher notes to celebrate 50+ years of Witi being a published author.
We chose them so that there would be something for each school level: our existing notes for The Astromancer are great for primary school teaching, and our newly commissioned notes for The Whale Rider can be enjoyed by intermediate upwards and Pounamu Pounamu is an excellent text for secondary schools.
