    PLAN & DO / WHAKAMAHI

    PLAN & DO / WHAKAMAHI learning intentions:

    • We are PLANNING... so that we can...
    • introduce ourselves in te reo māori
    • say an appropriate pepeha that connects is to our ancestral homelands
    • Present our whakapapa and describe each of our family members in te reo Māori

    Tōku Pepeha

    Over the next few week you will learn about pepeha. In te ao Māori, your pepeha connects you to your whakapapa and goes all the way back to the creation of the world when the sky father Ranginui and mother earth Papatuānuku were separated to allow light to come into the world. We recognise our mountain, river or ocean,waka, iwi, hapū, and our marae (including wharenui & wharekai). The last thing we acknowledge is ourselves because we as humans were created last.

    Maori Creation Story | Stillunfold

    For non-māori, your pepeha should also take you back to where your ancestors came from and acknowledge the mountain, rivers etc that relate to that place.

    You will need to do some research about where your ancestors originally came from so that you can connect to them and their home land.



  • 3 April - 9 April

    Learning Outcomes

    You should be able to:

    • ask how many objects or people
    • say how many objects or people

    Asking How many objects?

    When we want to ask how many objects there are we use the phrase “E hia ngā ……..?” 


    E hia ngā āporo?         How many apples?          E rua ngā āporo.     There are two apples

    Note: The question word “hia” is replaced with the answer (two or rua)

    If there is only ONE  we would reply “Kotahi te….”


    Kotahi te āporo


    Asking How many people?

    When we want to ask how many people there are we use the phrase 

    “Tokohia ngā …...?” instead of E hia ngā …….?


    Tokohia ngā tamariki?         How many children?

    Tokowhā ngā tamariki.          There are four children


    However, we only use “toko” for 2-9 people. For 10 or more people we go back to use ‘E (number)’ like withj objects.

    If there is only ONE person we would also reply “Kotahi te……...” 

    E.g. Kotahi te tamaiti        There is one child.
