Year 12 Te Reo Māori

Year 12 Te Reo Māori allows students to become secure in their Year 11 learning and build on this with more sophisticated language features. In Year 12, students focus on expressing and justifying their opinions on a variety of topics such as their future plans, friendship and family relationships, and health and social issues facing teenagers. The overarching kaupapa is about Te ao o te rangatahi- The world of our youth through (but not specifically) a Māori lens. Students also have the chance to complete a Tikanga study. 

At this level of Te Reo Māori, we give students more ownership in programme planning.  If there is a particular interest or passion within the class, we endeavour to focus on this as a learning possibility in addition to proposed topics. 

The skills of Pānui/reading, kōrerorero/speaking (both prepared and conversational), whakarongo/listening and tuhituhi/writing are all coveassessed throughout the year so that students are able to both understand and produce Te Reo Māori. 

Year 12 Māori is a year long course, 7 periods per cycle.
