This week it was Maori Language week. In Room 7 we were playing 21 and we did it in Maori. We have little booklets and in Maori it is spelled Rataka. Inside the Rataka there is days in the week, shapes, numbers, greetings, feelings, objects in the classroom, body parts, colours, simple commands and farewells. We have a colouring in competition.
The most popular colours in Maori are whero, ma and mangu/pango.
Some body parts are puku and waewae.
We also do wakatauki. In English it's a proverb.
I have learned how to count in Maori.
I think that it is an amazing culture. The reason I think that it is an amazing culture is because of how they say things. The words are spelt differently and we say them differently too.
