Teacher guidelines

Introduction

The following guidelines are supplied to enable teachers to carry out valid and consistent assessment using this internal assessment resource.

This activity assesses two different achievement standards. Teachers need to be very familiar with the outcome being assessed by the achievement standards. The achievement criteria and the explanatory notes contain information, definitions, and requirements that are crucial when interpreting the standard and assessing students against it.

Context/setting

This activity requires students to perform a hakato communicate comprehensive understanding of the style of the haka.It also requires students to consistently demonstrate an outstanding level of social responsibility through applying a social responsibility model when they are involved in the rehearsal and performance of the dance and in a wider context outside the classroom.

To achieve with Excellence, students need to reach Level 5 of Hellison’s Model, which means they are consistently demonstrating Level 4 behaviours not only in physical activity but in wider school and/or community life and are acting as role models and assisting others to reaching a similar level.

Another type of ethnic dance could be considered such as Tinikling, Chinese Fan Dance, Indian dance – Bharatanatyam or Bollywood. The students could also perform a social dance such as the waltz, cha-cha, rock ‘n roll or Lindy Hop.

Conditions

The student must consistently demonstrate the desired behaviours in a wider community context. This often requires an external assessor such as a coach orteam manager who regularly observes the student participating in physical activity. An example of useful resources to give this ‘external assessor’ can be found at The dance will be choreographed collaboratively by the teacher and students.

You will need to gather your own evidence in terms of Hellison’s Model so that you are able to meaningfully confirm the validity of the judgements made by peer and other assessors.

The evidence for this standard should be collected over a prolonged period of time.

Resource requirements

  • appropriate clothing
  • props if required
  • Resource A: Hellison’s Model of Social Responsibility
  • cultural advisers regarding appropriate haka for both female and male students.

Additional information

Student instructions

Introduction

This assessment activity requires you to perform a haka that communicates understanding of the style. It also requires you to consistently demonstrate social responsibility through applying a social responsibility model in your involvement in the haka and in wider contexts or community life.

You will be assessed on how comprehensively you demonstrate your understanding of the details and emotional content of the haka as you perform it. You will also be assessed on how consistently you demonstrate an outstanding level of social responsibility through applying a social responsibility model in your haka sessions and in wider contexts and or community life.

The following instructions provide you with a way to structure your work so you can demonstrate what you have learnt and achieve success in these standards.

Teacher note:It is expected that the teacher will read the student instructions and modify them if necessary to suit their students.

Task

Use the specific technique and characteristics of the haka that you have learned in your class and rehearsals, to choreograph, with your teacher, a haka. You will not be assessed on your choreography.

The haka performance will be 1-2 minutes long and will be performed by the whole class.

Your teacher will provide specific instructions and further guidance and you will develop the dance sequence collaboratively, based on and clearly communicating your understanding of the emotional content and style of the haka.

Perform the dance in a manner that clearly communicates your understanding of the haka.

Apply Hellison’s Model of Social Responsibility to each of the rehearsals. You will also peer assess someone else in the class, with your teacher, to determine what level of social responsibility they are working at.

You will also select and participate in a physical activity that allows you to demonstrate social responsibility beyond the haka activity. For example, showing leadership by teaching a haka or other dance to others at the school, in a club;or teaching younger students outside of school bycoaching a junior sports team.

The activity will need to be one where a leader can observe and attest that you consistently demonstrated social responsibility skills.

Invite this leader to be your assessor, in this context. Give them a copy of Hellison’s Model of Social Responsibility (Resource A).

Records and assessment

Maintain an ongoing log or journal, where you record your participation in rehearsals and in the physical activity in the wider context. Reflect on the demonstration of social responsibility in your physical activities and assess yourself in relation to the behaviours listed in the Hellison model. Your behaviours, while participating in and leading physical activities, will be observed at different stages during your training. Your level of social responsibility will be assessed on evidence from your log/journal, and your assessor or leader from the wider community.

Evidence/Judgements for Achievement / Evidence/Judgements for Achievement with Merit / Evidence/Judgements for Achievement with Excellence
The student consistently demonstrates social responsibility through applying a social responsibility model in physical activity by:
  • applying self-direction and using ongoing reflection within Hellison’s Model of Social Responsibility in physical activity (Level 3 of Hellison’s model)
For example the student:
-displays on-task independence, will work at improving the skills required to improve the takahia
-sets goals and self-standards, will organise themselves and be motivated to ensure they get the best out of each rehearsal leading up to the performance
-shows the courage to resist peer pressure, continues to stay on task with rehearsals
-isfullyinvolvedandactive,alwayshasgearandiseagertoparticipateinallactivities,quietlyconfidentinselfbutmaynotspeakupinagroupsituation
-participatesin rehearsals, willlistento andfollowinstructionsforthe activity
The teacher told us that we had to practise our takahia for the performance. I made sure that I took time in class and out of class to do this.
The examples above are indicative samples only. / The student consistently demonstrates a high level of social responsibility through applying a social responsibility model in physical activity by:
  • applying self-direction and using ongoing reflection and helping others in leadership within Hellison’s Model of Social Responsibility in physical activity (Level 4 of Hellison’s model)
For example the student:
-shows good interpersonal skills
-listens and responds without being judgmental
-helps others when they want help or need it
-recognises the needs and feelings of others
-shows inner strength and the ability to resist peer pressure and to step up as a leader
-makes sure all people in the group have equal opportunity to be involved
-acknowledges their groups’ skills or efforts
-happily accepts others as part of the group
I helped Piri with his takahia for the haka. He was not quite getting the correct movement and was out of sequence with the rest of his line. I got him to practise with me the movements without the arm action so that he could get his feet moving in time with the Te Reo.
The examples above are indicative samples only. / The student consistently demonstrates an outstanding level of social responsibility through applying a social responsibility model in physical activity by:
  • applying self-direction, using ongoing reflection and helping others in leadership within Hellison’s Model of Social Responsibility in physical activity and other aspects of their lives (Level 5 of Hellison’s model)
For example the student:
-tries all the Hellison’s Model of Social Responsibility goals in other areas of school and life
-is a role model
-assists others in reaching this level, e.g. Assessor comment: Tom worked with a group of primary school children aged between 9-11 years old at the dance centre. He takes the warm-up for the children and teaches them technique in the class. He is professional in everything that he does and has a very good rapport with the children who look to him as a role model. He models good behaviour and expects that of the children he teaches. If they are off task he will try and re-focus them. His enthusiasm and energy make him a good role model.
The examples above are indicative samples only.

Final grades will be decided using professional judgement based on a holistic examination of the evidence provided against the criteria in the Achievement Standard.
Assessment schedule: Dance 91207 – Haka

Evidence/Judgements for Achievement / Evidence/Judgements for Achievement with Merit / Evidence/Judgements for Achievement with Excellence
The student performs a haka to communicate understanding of the style by:
  • recalling and reproducing the dance in accordance with the demonstration or description used as a basis for the dance style
For example:
The dancer is able to perform the movement without watching other dancers. When performing the haka the student:
-reproduces the movement required for the haka
-maintains the singing or chanting required for the haka
-performs with generally accurate timing
-maintains the spacing required
-shows some awareness of the meaning of the haka.
The examples above are indicative samples only. / The student performs a haka to communicate an in-depth understanding of the style by demonstrating:
  • clarity of movement
  • appropriate posture for the dance style
  • appropriate focus for the style
  • generally accurate timing
  • appropriate sense of rhythm or musicality
For example:
When performing the haka the dancer:
-reproduces the movement required for the haka clearly and accurately
-performs with accurate timing, contributing to the audible rhythm provided by body percussion, maintaining takahia
-focuses on hand and foot movements in the haka as well as out to the audience to communicate the ideas
-performs movement convincingly showing that the performer clearly understands the words of the songs or chants.
The examples above are indicative samples only. / The student performs a haka to communicate a comprehensive understanding of the style by:
  • displaying details of the style (e.g. defined hand and head movements)
  • conveying the emotional content of the style
For example:
When performing the haka the dancer:
-includes spontaneous gestures such as pukana appropriately
-maintains a smooth flow from one movement to the next.
Differentiates the dynamics by:
-showing the stabbing movements of the haka contrasted with the flow of hand movements required by the action song
-performing similar movements with different dynamics appropriate to the style, e.g. using a strong aggressive movement to strike the chest in the haka to dramatically portray the emotion or meaning
-usingthe head and eyes convincingly to engage with the audience where appropriate and to convey meaning of each of the dances.
The examples above are indicative samples only.

Final grades will be decided using professional judgement based on a holistic examination of the evidence provided against the criteria in the Achievement Standard.
