Description - Te Hikuwai: Launch Yourself Into Te Reo Maori by Michael Keith
At last ' a comprehensive, enjoyable and easily understandable self-tuition course for Mäori language! Te Hikuwai is the first book in Te Rere o te Reo, a bilingual course in Te Reo Mäori for learners of all backgrounds. As notable Mäori language advocate Piripi Walker says in his foreword: 'Te Hikuwai provides all the steps you need for mastery of the first stages of speaking and writing idiomatic Mäori. It has been located within real-life activities of contemporary people, scenarios which imagine you using Mäori, in Mäori-speaking networks, in modern settings.' Te Hikuwai offers a reference text, workbook and audio resource all in one. It is structured in units, each opening with a dialogue and followed by explanations of words, expressions and language patterns. Exercises and activities ' with space for your answers ' reinforce key points of learning at every step. In the classroom Te Rere o te Reo (the flow of language) is a foundation course in three levels: ' Te Hikuwai (the stream) ' Te Wahapü (the river mouth) Teachers will find that the course's design for self-tuition enhances its classroom use with secondary students, as well as adult learners, launching into Mäori language. Te Hikuwai forms at least one-third of a three-year basic course. The course overall will offer teachers and students all the resources they need for students to achieve NCEA Level 1 in the language.
