Description - Te Wahapu: Launch Yourself Into Te Reo Maori by Ian McCormack

Te Wahap is the second book in this comprehensive, enjoyable and easily understandable self-tuition course for Maori language. Te Rere o te Reo offers an up-to-date bilingual approach to mastering te reo M ori, designed for learners of all backgrounds in today's world. As notable M ori language advocate Piripi Walker says in his foreword: 'Te Wahap , like Te Hikuwai before it, provides all the steps you need for mastery of the first stages of speaking and writing idiomatic M ori. It has been located within real-life activities of contemporary people, scenarios which imagine you using M ori, in M ori-speaking networks, in modern settings.' The books offer a reference text, workbook and audio resource all in one. They are 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 Wahap (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 M ori language. Te Wahap along with Te Hikuwai form at least two-thirds 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.
