Year 10 Te Reo Māori
Subject Description
Teacher in Charge: Ms S. Hull.
Year 10 Te Reo Māori
Languages are inseparably linked to the social and cultural contexts in which they are used. Languages and cultures play a key role in developing our personal, group, national and human identities. Every language has its own way of expressing meanings; each has intrinsic value and special significance for its users. In learning languages, students learn to communicate in an additional language. As they do so, they begin to expand their own world and to open up a whole range of new possibilities. Learning one new language makes it easier to learn others. Learning a new language provides a means of communicating with people from other cultures. As students acquire the skills of communicative competence, they simultaneously explore and reflect on their own personal world and their own culture. By reaching out, they also reach within.
Topics Covered
A range of themes and skills will be practised through listening, speaking, reading and writing in Māori. The following topics will be covered by Kei te Kainga, Te Ao Taiohi, Kei te Marae and Kei te Kura.
This is an outline course available through our online learning environment "My Te Kura". Students will be required to make and submit video recordings, so a microphone and camera or mobile device are required. Work must be uploaded to the students DropBox monthly.
