MAORI MOVIE - asking people how they are and responding with their feelings.

This is our Maori Movie. I went with Alice and Miss Butson and we created a Maori movie with us speaking maori and subtitles underneath. There are the steps that we go through, and then the movie! (that is the English version.) The short movie was based on greetings and how we feel. Watch the Maori Movie below! Enjoy!

This is the first step where we learnt the greetings and sentences. **Kei te pēhea koe?** How are you?  **Hei aha māu?** What's it to you? **I pēhea tō rā?** How was your day? **He aha ō mahi i tēnei rā?** What did you do today? ||
 * Ways of asking people how they are:

**Kei te pai ahau** I’m good **Ka nui te ora** I’m great **Me koe?** And you? <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">**Piro rawa atu!** <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> It sucked! <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">**Pai mairka taku ra!** <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> I had a great day! <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">**Ka rawe** <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Choice, awesome <span style="background-color: transparent; color: #000000; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; font-style: normal; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">**Ehara mai!

FAMILY MEMBERS - learning our family members names in Maori, and using a way to remember them.

For this task we had to go in groups and find the Maori words for family members, and create some way to remember them. Me, Alice and Giorgia did a song. Here are the words:

MY BIRTHDAY

<span style="color: #2300ff; font-family: 'Palatino Linotype','Book Antiqua',Palatino,serif; font-size: 140%;">Today we are learning to say our birthday in Maori.

<span style="background-color: transparent; color: #ff00ff; display: block; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;"><span style="background-color: transparent; color: #ff00ff; font-family: Arial; font-size: 11pt; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">ā te ono o here-turi-koka.

My birthday is the 6th of August.

Explain?

This is my birthday in Maori. I am the 6th of August. So my birthday is... ā te **ONO** o **HERE TURI KOKA** The bold writing is my birthday date in the sentence.
