E Hia?

Hi Everyone
For the last few weeks we have been learning Maori with Miss Mentor. I have created a presentation call E Hia? or How Many? Here it is

Maori Creatures

Kia Ora everyone,

Today we did a screencastify on Maori Creatures. First we chose an animal then we had to find the Maori name. My favourite animal was the stingray- Whai. Once we had finished our chart we then began to practise our pronunciation and then film a screencastify. Here it is.

Te Reo

We have been learning  the protocol of a powhiri. We had to match the Maori words with the English phrase of words that could be used during powhiri.

Match the Maori word with its meaning
Waha Roa	People of the land
Manuhiri	Shaking of hands, hongi
Tangatawhenua	Woman who call to the people
Karanga	Dining Room
Mahau	Formal Speech
Kaikaranga	Song
Whaikorero	Pressing of noses
Kaikorero	Sacred
Pae Pae	Gateway to the marae
Waiata	Not sacred (Normal)
Hariru	Visitors
Hongi	Rules set by the marae
Kawa	Call
Whare Kai	Male who speaks
Tapu	Veranda of the Marae
Whakanoa	The seat where the speakers sit

Mountain presentation

We worked in groups to make our mountain presentations. It was hard choosing colours, sizes and images that worked together. I am proud that I found out some facts about Te Ahu Ahu.
