Term 1
WHAKATAKI: Te Whakawhanaungatanga me te whakamahere (building strong connections and pre-planning).
Our first ā-roto (Te reo Māori 2.1 - internal 92391 4cr), you will communicate the Māori principles of personification/reverse personification within te reo Māori. You will read a variety of authentic te reo Māori materials and write expressively for a range of purposes. You will use a range of strategies to learn te reo Māori effectively - this is an example of one of the activities that you will participate in. You will present this ā-roto as an oral or written presentation.
We will then look at the second ā-roto (Te reo Māori 2.2 - 92392 6cr), you will communicate ideas with developing accuracy in a spoken presentation. You will reflect on a past event or experience using te reo Māori.
This activity involves a presentation to an audience, either in person or online. You will share your information in the context of your choice - this is another example of a possible scenario. There are three options for each ā-roto (internal assessment).
Term 2
We will continue working through the available activities for the two ā-roto (internal assessments).
We will also begin our mahi from our pre-planning which was started in term 1 on our ā-waho (external assessment) Te reo Māori 2 - 92390, 6 credits.
You will present a Kete of evidence consisting of ONE spoken and ONE written piece, each one relating to a different context and using language at Level 7 of the curriculum. The intention is that the final materials for submission will come from multiple authentic works produced by you throughout the year. Kaiako and ākonga will need to consider all the speaking and written evidence produced throughout the year in order to select materials, for submission, that best represent your best efforts.
Both video-recorded spoken responses and written material will be submitted online and marked by NZQA.
There will be an opportunity to go along and support our four speakers at Manu Kōrero Speech competitions held annually in Ōtautahi (Christchurch).
Term 3
This is a very busy term, you will still be working on completing all assessments. There will be opportunities to participate as a supporter at the local Flava Festival and be immersed in a kaupapa Māori event.
Feedback and feedforward as well as planning what and where to next - making the right selections for our braided river pathways.
Also the time to have one to one or small group tutorial sessions to improve your Te reo Māori journey and ensure that you are successful in this kaupapa (subject).
This is also the term that our kapahaka team are heading to Japan - perhaps we could have a whānau hui around our Māori classes heading to places of importance locally, regionally, and nationally.
Matariki - Hautapu: participate in this at kura alongside the teina.
Term 4
This is our term for reflection: Analyzing and looking at our braided river journey's thus far. Where we started, what we have achieved, the disappointments (because these are learning experiences), the highs and lows. Most importantly, the plan going forward - where to from here. Getting ready for the next year. What are our new goals to ensure our braided river journey is completed effectively and more efficiently.
