What is this?

I completed an maori activity about here, there, and over there.

First, I did tenei. I looked at the images and wrote some responses. For example: He aha tenei? He pukapuka tenei.

Next, I did tena. I looked at the images and wrote some responses. For example: He aha tena? He moenga tena.

Lastly, I did tera. I looked at the images and wrotes some responses. For example: He aha tera? He tui tera.

I enjoyed doing this activity because this activity was basicly revision on what we have done over the past weeks.

Maori Questions

I did an activity slide about maori questions.

First, I looked at the questions and see what I had to write. For example: Kei hea te totiti. Where is the sausage.

Next, I wrote down the answers. For example: Kei runga i te tohi.

Lastly, I did my own slide where I had to find an image to match the question and the answer. 

I enjoyed doing this activity because I have revised everything that we have learnt over the past year.

Maori Questions

I created a slide deck about Maori Questions.

First, I did made up sentences about the maori word proposition. I wrote it in maori and english so that people who don't understand the maori language, they can just read the englsih part.

I enjoyed this activity because I learnt how to use these propositions properly.

This task was easy because I had lots of things at home that I could use.

HPE | Maori Version

Tuatahi, I did the Ringa Pakia. Ringa Pakia is bending legs and smaking your thighs. While doing that, you also stomp your feet.

A tera, I did the Lift Up. The Lift Up is like lifting a big weight up in the air but a different version. This is what Tane did to separate his parents.

We revised some previous questions from the past couple of weeks.

Next, we revised some questions. For example: "Kei hea te aporo? Kei roto i te peke." This means where is the apple, it is inside the bag.

These questions were easy because when Whaea Odie called out the questions, I answered straight away.

Questions

I learnt how to say questions.

First, we revised what below, above, left, right, middle, out, in, front, and behind. Below is raro, above is runga, middle is waenganui, right is matau,  left is maui, out is waho, in is roto, front is mua, and behind is muri.

After, we learnt how to say questions. Kei hea te waka ma? Kei muri i te waka whero.

First, I learnt prepositions. "Kei runga ki te kutikuti". This means - Above the scissors.

After, I learnt maui and matou. Maui means (left) and matou means (right)

Next time, I need to practice my maui and matou because I go the wrong direction.

Up and Down

I learnt how to say questions that had an object on top.

First, we learnt how to say the object that is on top of the book. "Kei hea tei ika hei runga i te pukapuka".

After, we made a poster by labeling 10 items in the kitchen and labeling it with maori.

Next time, I should work on saying the top and bottom maori questions.

Passing

I learnt how to tell someone to pass something on.

First, I revised what tenei, tena, tera. Tenei is here, tena is there, and tera is over there.

After, I learnt how to tell someone to pass something on. For example: Hoatu te Ika ki te taha maui. This means pass the fish to the left.

This activity was easy because I learnt how to pass something to someone in Maori.

Prepositions

I learnt about prepositions.

The prepositions I used was for a picture in next to me was tenei. The next perposition I used was one meter away from me was tena. The last proposition I used was a distance away from me was tera.

These prepositions will help me because when I want something I can just say "Get me a snack from Tera." 

Classroom Questions

I learnt some questions that will help me in the classroom.

The first question I learnt was Kua Mutu. Kua Mutu means finished.

The question after was Kua Marama. Kua Marama means do you understand or Marama - understand.

Next time when I practice my questions, I should remember them to say them to my teachers.

Mihi Whakatau

Mihi Whakatau is a Maori term for a formal greeting.

Mihi Whakatau is traditionally used for welcoming introductions and openings. It is undertaken by the Tangata Whenua (local inhabits).

The Mihi needs to acknowledge the significant aspeds to the place. The Maunga (mountain), Awa (river), and Iwi (tribe) are generally used.

Introducing Ingoa (name), Oku Tipuna (ancestral place) and where you live is important for the audience to understand the position of the speaker.

Manuhiri is the term used to describe or group the visitors that are being welcomed.

It is important to end with warm visitors so the visitors know that there is no hostility in 2 groups being together.

Being respectful of the land, the people and the purpose of a visit will ensure long lasting relationships and connections. 

Mihi Whakatau

Today I did The Mihi Whakatau task and I changed the Mihi Whakatau information into my information. I changed the word Samoa into Hamoa and I put in my last name.

First, I copied and pasted the Mihi Whakatau template off of the google document.

Next, I pasted the Mihi Whakatau into a google drawing and then I wrote my information in.

Lastly, I practiced saying the Mihi Whakatau and I recorded it by using screencastify.

I enjoyed this task because I recorded myself saying Maori words and I learnt how to speak it.
