Kupu | Translating Maori words

This week for our Māori session we learnt different words in Maori by translating them.

Before we started doing the activity we had to answer 3 questions. One of them was "He aha te ra/What is the date?" The answer was "Ko te Rāapa teni ra, rua tekau ma tahi o Whiringa a nuku/Wednesday the 21th of October.

Next I translated a column of Maori words to English and some words from the Rona song. Example: Ka pai/well done, wera/hot, marama/moon.

Lastly we matched the Maori words with the picture that shows the weather.

Here is a list of different Maori words translated.
