LI: To practise the Maori pronounciation for "what are you doing today?".
I have completed the 6th activity for the Summer Learning Journey. This includes the Kick Start and Step it Up challenges. The main purpose of this activity was to help people understand the Maori Language and how to pronounce it. For this activity we learnt how to say "what are you doing today?" in Maori.
On the DLO we listened to a voice recording of someone saying "what are you doing today?" in Maori. After hearing the voice recording we had to sort out each word in Maori to create the sentence. It was very easy to get tricked or not hear something properly and make a mistake so we had to listen closely. In Maori "what are you doing today?" translates to - "Kei te aha koe I tenei ra?". In the DLO it also teaches us abit of dialouge, after asking "what are you doing today?", there is another voice recording saying "I am going to ...." and give the different options in Maori.
Befor doing this activity I knew how to speak Te reo Maori but I just learnt how to say "what are you doing today?". This was a fun activity, I learnt something new and since Maori is not my first language this was fun.

Great work on your te reo Māori activity!
Looking back at the create section on the activity, it also includes another component under create - to draw a picture of you and your whānau doing the activity you chose in slide five. It would be awesome if you could complete this part too, so I can give you some points!
Here is an example of a cool drawing that Kayla has done: check out slide seven to have a look.
Keep up the good mahi e hoa!

Greetings Fau,
ReplyDeleteGreat job for completing sixth Summer Learning Journey Task. You were an active blogger and have made quality posts! I also liked that you have added a well explained blurb as you have added points like "what you did" and your opinions as well. Same as you, I have completed this task and I found it interesting because I came to know new vocabulary words after completing this activity. Did you know this topic before completing the task? Did you use the internet or Maori dictionary for help?
Keep up the great work through out the Summer Learning Journey.
I am looking forward to talk to you through the comments.

Hi Sakshi!
DeleteI am really happy you are commenting on my blog! Before doing this topi, I knew a few Maori from lessons we have at Panmure Bridge School. We learn different words, numbers, songs and more. I used the Maori dictionary to assist me on this activity. Did you know anything about this topic?
Looking forward to more of your comments!
