mud eye said quickly sounds like marae

inga the winga, sing a song for nga

cuddle, huddle muddle for rolling your r's

Week 2 

Greetings and farewells, slides give you some options, remember to not take on too much at once and to introduce a new greeting once you've nailed one.

Week 3 

Kei te pēhea koe? How are you?

Ko au - me

ko koe - you 

ko ia - him/her (singular)

Week 4

Week 6 

Recap on mihi and kōrero tuakiri, what is the difference between pepeha and mihi.  DIfferent reo for acknowledging mountain and river if you don't have a whakapapa connection to that land.

Week 7,

Expanding on kei te pēhea and adding a new tense marker or pūmahi.  Kei te present tense.  I - past tense? Also adding in locations 

I pēhea te hui? - How was the hui? 

Also remembering that the answer to a question will start with the words of the question, ie,

I pēhea te akoranga? - How was your lesson?

I pai te akoranga, - the lesson was good 

Kei te pēhea te haerenga? - How is your journey?

Kei te roa te haerrenga, the journey is long!
