For the rest of this term, you need to finish your manu mahi. Please click on this link for all the success criteria. Please check that you have covered all criteria, also ask a friend to check too. When you have completed this, email Whaea Kylie with your assessment. You can then begin on your pōwhiri mahi.
You need to do some Te Kura each week.
Work on your Kōrero to video, you need to be submitting it this week.
Finish your West Coast writing and submit it.
Getting ready for your next kōrero
Begin with writing a basic recount of the trip to the Marae ( I hope you were there that day). I can then help you translate to te reo. It will be in past tense (i) for example - I tērā marama (last month), i haere mātou (ngā ākonga reo Māori o te kura tuarua o Māwhera) ki te Arahura Marae (the students of reo Māori Grey high went to the Arahura marae). It helps to structure it in an ordered way, eg: first (tuatahi...., second (tuarua).... A way to keep it simple is to explain the process you went through in order - waiting at the waharoa, the karanga, the kaikōrero and waiata from the mana whenua, then the manuhiri, the hongi then the kai to whakanoa the process. Email Whaea Kylie with any questions.
Each week please watch three of these short videos. Take notes in your pukapuka. use the new words and sentences you are learning. plan a time that you can say these and who you will say them to.
This week you will be doing some mahi on the waharoa of our kura and some learning and planning around Matariki with Matua Joe.
