Description

Kia oràna! Welcome to the Learning Language Series course I-E-KO-KO! An Introduction to Cook Islands Màori. This course provides an integrated package of materials designed to offer flexible entry-level resources for teachers and students who are new learners of the Cook Islands Màori language. The design of the course acknowledges the fact that, for many teachers, this may be the first association they have with a Pasifika language. It encourages teachers to adopt the role of the facilitator in the classroom, learning along with the students and potentially learning from them. Please don’t worry, and reassure students so that they don’t worry, if you don’t understand some words throughout the course. Learners are not expected to understand every word. However, the DVD will clearly focus on the target language for you, and the presenter will identify the language focus throughout. Don’t worry about pronunciation either. You will hear everything you need to say in Cook Islands Màori on the audio CD, and there will be lots of opportunities for practice.
