1. Tēnei/tēnā/tērā - Determiners 1

E.g. Tēnei pukapuka / this book

Erā manu / those birds

Hei mahi:

1. Using the Reo Māori o Nāianei 1 textbook, look at the notes on page 13 about the determiners 'tēnei/tēnā/tērā' and their plural forms 'ēnei/ēnā/ērā.' Note how although 'tēnā' and 'tērā' both mean that, they differ depending on where the item is in relation to the speaker.
2. Copy the notes from page 13 into your book, you can draw up a table for the examples if you want.
3. Using the Te Mātāpuna textbook, look at the pictures on page 26 that help deonstrate how to decide if you should use 'tēnei/tērā/tērā' when speaking about items in relation to our self or others. Copy any of the pictures that you find helpful into your book.
4. Follow this link, read through the notes as further reinforcement of these determiners, then complete the activities below the notes. If you get the answer correct, the box will turn light green.
5. Using the Reo Māori o Nāianei 1 textbook, complete mahi 7 & 8 in your book. Check your answers after each activity to ensure you are on the right track.
6. In pairs, complete mahi 9 & 10 (page 14) verbally. For this task, each of you will take turns at reading one of the sentences (they are in English), then translating it aloud in Māori. If you do not get the translation correct, try again until you do. Check your answers at the end of the activity.
7. In the same pair, complete mahi 11 (page 14) verbally, by reading each sentence, then saying the plural version of the sentence to each other.

Homework Book Mahi:

• Complete the 'tenei/tēnā/tērā' activities on pages 16 & 42 of the Te Mātāpuna Homework book.

Splitting 'tēnei/tēnā/tērā' - 'tē.....nei/tē.......nā/tē......rā'

E.g. Titiro ki te motokā nei / Look at this car (here)

Te waka rā / That car (over there)

Hei mahi:

1. Read through the notes on page 16 of the Reo Māori o Nāianei 1 textbook, on splitting 'tēnei/tēnā/tērā' between the noun. Note: This split does not change the meaning of the word or sentence at all, it is just an alternative way to structure these phrases.
2. Note: if you want to split the plural 'ēnei/ēnā/ērā' you need to use 'ngā' at instead of 'te.'
3. Using the Te Pūkaki textbook, copy the examples of splitting these determiners that are located in the Te Whakamārama 2.4 section of page 45.
4. Now copy the plural examples from Te Whakamārama 2.5 on pages 46-47.
5. Complete Mahi 12 & 13 on page 16 (Reo Māori 1). Check your answers in the back of your book as you go.
6. In your book, write 8 x sentences using this structure (4 x te - 4 x ngā). once you have written all 8 sentences, swap your book with a buddy and translate each others sentences. once finished, mark the translated sentences together.

2. Tētahi/Ētahi - Determiners 2

E.g. Tētahi rorohiko / a computer

Ētahi tamariki / some children

Hei mahi:

1. Follow this link, and copy the notes and examples into your book.
2. Complete Mahi 16 on page 18 (Reo Māori 1) in your book. Check your answers at the end of each section of the activity. Note: the instructions for each section are different so ensure you read them carefully.
3. Using the Te Pūkaki textbook, read through the notes and examples of 'tētahi/ētahi' on pages 33-34. Looking at Te Whakamārama 1.15 on page 33, you can see the differences between many of the determiners we have been studying. In these examples, you will see how 'tētahi' is used when you want 'a/one' of something, and 'ētahi' is use when you want 'some' of something.
4. Copy the diagrams from Te Whakamārama 1.15 into your book.
5. Using the diagrams you have copied to assist you, complete the Hei Mahi (red section) on page 33. To complete this task you need to write some appropriate sentences about the people/things int he pictures, using he arrows to show you if you are writing a 'tētahi' or 'ētahi' sentence.
6. Complete the Hei Mahi on page 34, the same way you completed the Hei Mahi on page 33.
7. Get into a pair, and together, go through and mark the sentences you each wrote for the last 2 Hei Mahi. Try to correct any mistakes. Then, take your book to the teacher for checking.

3. Taua/Aua - Determiners 3

E.g. Taua kuri / that dog (which we have spoken about)

Aua rīhi / those dishes (that were previously mentioned)

Hei mahi:

1. Using the Reo Māori o Nāianei 1 textbook, read the notes and examples on page 17 of the words 'taua/aua' being used to say 'that/those'
2. Copy all of the notes and examples below, into your book:

'Taua' - that (aforementioned person/place/thing)

'Aua' - those (aforementioned people/places/things)

'Taua/aua' can be used to say that/those, however, they are only used when you specifically want to refer to something/someone/some place, you have mention previously. For example:

• Tērā waka - that car (over there)
• Taua waka - that car (which we have already spoken about)
• Aua waka - those cars (which we have already spoken about)

3. Complete Mahi 14 on page 17 (Reo Māori 1) in your book. Check your answers at the end of the activity.

4. Complete Mahi 15 in your book and mark it.

4. Anei/Anā/Arā - here, here it is, here they are / there, there it is...

E.g. Anei te kai / Here's the kai

Arā tōu koti / There's your coat

1. Using the Te Kākano textbook, read through the notes on page 59 entitled 'Arā te pokokōhua rā'. Copy the notes/explanation and examples into your book.
2. Now using the Te Mātāpuna textbook, look at the examples in Te Whakamārama 5.21 on page 137. Look at the pictures with the 2 girls and how the placement of the book determines if you use 'anei, anā or arā.' The placement of the object changes the word like it does when using 'tēnei/tēnā/tērā.' Using the pictures as a guide, draw 3 pictures of your own in your book that demonstrate the use of 'anei/anā/arā' and include the captions from the pictures in Te Whakamārama 5.22.
3. Follow this link to read notes and examples on using 'anei' to say 'here'. Copy a shortened version of the notes into your book, as well as all of the examples. Once you have copied the notes, complete the translation task below the notes. Once you have completed all translations correctly, copy 3 of the sentences (English and Māori translations).
4. In pairs, practice using 'anei/anā/arā' by placing 4 different items in different locations around you (e.g. one by you, one by them, one away from you both). Then, take turns at asking 'kei hea te/ngā.......? Your partner will then answer using the correct word. For example:

• Aroha: Wiremu, kei hea te pukapuka?
• Wiremu: Anei te pukapuka.
• Aroha: Kei hea ngā hū?
• Wiremu: Arā ngā hū

5. Keep asking questions until you have covered all of the items locations, then get another 4 objects and complete the task again with them.
