Description

This course will be taught and assessed in English and in Te Reo Maori. This course aims to further advance pronunciation and communicative competence of pre-service teachers in te reo Maori. Learning will be based on scaffolded conversational and contextual opportunities to engage in te reo Maori consistent with the level 2 achievement objectives of Te Aho Arataki Marau -TAAM (the Maori Language Curriculum for mainstream New Zealand schools) and in accordance with the kaupapa whakahaere | principles of Te Whariki (The Early Childhood Curriculum). Pre-service teachers will be able to demonstrate an understanding of te reo Maori me nga tikanga-a-iwi applicable to a variety of formal and informal learning contexts with whanau and community with increased ability and confidence.

1. Demonstrate competence in the pronunciation of te reo Māori.
2. Demonstrate communicative competence in te reo Māori (me ōna tikanga) at a beginner level.
3. Self-reflect critically on their own bi-cultural teaching competence with regard to the principles of Te Whāriki or the competencies of Tātaiako.
4. Demonstrate increasing confidence and competence to use and teach te reo Māori authentically in teaching practice.
5. Apply tikanga Māori and mātauranga Māori authentically, in educational contexts (such as noho marae, classrooms, ECE settings), and reflect critically on this application.
