This term, our learning in Te Reo Māori is linked with our Inquiry focus on healthy living - hauora tīnana. We have been learning about different types of food and how it helps keep our bodies healthy.
Here are the different names of food we have learnt in Te Reo.
This poster is displayed in our window so we can practise finding the word matching the picture.
Here are Paige, Lewis, Ashwin and Cyan matching some. You might like to have a go when you come visit, too.
This week we also practised our manners for mealtimes... asking where a food is, asking someone to pass it, and responding politely.
"Kei whea te _______?" means "Where is the _______?" E.g. Kei whea te pata?=Where is the butter?
"Homai he _______," means "Gave me (pass) a/some ____." E.g. Homai he pata. = Pass some butter.
"Anei he _______," means "Here is a/some _______." E.g. Anei he pata. = Here's some butter.
Here we are, practising asking each other to pass an item of food.
