NCEA Level 3 Te Reo Māori 301
Course Description
Teacher in Charge: Kōkā R. Hautapu.
The overall theme of NCEA Reo Māori at Level 3 is Te Ao Whānui. This means ākonga engage with societal, national and international issues from Māori perspectives. Ākonga are expected to be conversant with:
- research, inquiry, and/or contexts that require deeper thinking;
- abstract thinking, including 'what could be', i.e. speculate about a hypothetical situation; and
- researching from a variety of sources, analysing & evaluating those sources.
Ākonga are able to, "take part in general conversation with speakers of te reo Māori, understand most of what is said, and contribute relevant comments. They can explain and discuss many of their own ideas and opinions and may use te reo Māori creatively. They can read a variety of authentic te reo Māori materials and write expressively for a range of purposes. Students use a range of strategies to help them learn te reo Māori effectively, and they demonstrate a high level of fluency for a learner of te reo Māori as a second language."
