NCEA L1 Te Reo Māori
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Whaea D. Day.
Te Puāwaitanga
NCEA L1 Te Reo Māori aims to be meet the learning objectives laid out above in the New Zealand curriculum for Te Reo Māori, building on the language skills gained in year 10:
6.1 give and follow instructions
6.2 communicate about problems and solutions
6.3 communicate about immediate plans, hopes, wishes and intentions
6.4 communicate in formal situations.
A focus on vocabulary and grammar learning is essential. We do this through as many different modes as possible including online games, speaking and listening tasks, reading and writing. A mixture of fun and hard graft!
You will continue to discover that the five main language skills necessary for effective communication, namely listening, speaking, reading, writing and cultural awareness, are interrelated, and this will be reflected in the teaching and learning programme for Te Reo Māori.
Te Reo Māori skills will be developed through a range of topics relating to your world and to te reo Māori in your world. Kauapapa (themes) may include, Te Marae, Te Kāinga, Te Ao Taiohi, Hākinakina, ANZAC, Matariki, Wairau.
You are also encouraged to take part in special events such as Ngā Manu Kōrero, Te Kaiaotanga o te Reo Māori, and will learn supporting karakia, mōteatea and waiata. Please also plan to attend two Wānanga Reo / te reo Māori workshops from a Friday evening through to Saturday afternoon in Term 1 and Term 3.
By working towards the NCEA Level 1 Achievement Standards you will develop the ability to communicate about your daily life, past and present, your hopes and aspirations for the future and give opinions related to events in your life. You will also be given the opportunity to complete te reo Māori unit standards if preferred.

Te Rere o te reo Māori
You will learn aspects of pronunciation, stress, intonation and the rhythm of the language, with an aim to be fluid and fluent. This big idea also involves a wide range of phrases and strategies for organising ideas for communication.
Focus: Students will use language strategies to develop their fluency in Te Reo Māori and communicate ideas with emerging fluency.
Te Māori o te reo Māori
The course has a focus on aspects of Māori worldviews that reflect the way Māori perceive their environment, practise customs and uphold values, and express ideas to maintain cultural integrity of the language.
Focus: You will identify Māori principles embedded in the words and structures of the language.
Te Ora o te reo Māori
You will learn about the sustainability of the language into the future through engaging in critical analysis of language change and the implementation of language revitalisation strategies to ensure the language continues to thrive throughout the upcoming generations.
Focus: You will learn about past and present impacts on the vitality of te reo Māori.
Significant Learning
• understand your contribution to the revitalisation of the language for the good of the collective
• connect with others outside the classroom to explore and learn from the community and from examples of Māori success
• practice and enjoy experimenting with a wide range of spoken, written, and visual communication in te reo Māori
• explore the key values of Māori culture and Māori principles embedded in the language
• explore how language and culture affect, and work together in, communication.
Whāinga - Goal
By the end of level 6, students can converse with te reo Māori speakers in familiar social situations and cope with some less familiar ones. They can use basic Māori language patterns spontaneously. They show a willingness to experiment with new language and to read independently. They can write short passages, personal letters, and simple formal letters in te reo Māori. Students are increasingly confident in using a range of strategies for learning te reo Māori and for communicating with others in predominantly Māori social contexts.
