I NGĀ MARAMA E ONO
TE ARA WHAKAAKO I TE PĀNUI
Whārangi Ihirangi
Mātua ko te Kōtuitui
Kaiako should explicitly plan to integrate the language strands, whakarongo, kōrero, pānui, tuhituhi, mātakitaki and whakaatu.
Language competency is critical for ākonga to successfully access the curriculum and learning that is relevant to their world.
It is important to make connections across the curriculum between prior knowledge and new knowledge by providing a range of stimulating and engaging experiences.

PĀNUI NGĀTAHI | SHARED READING
Pānui Ngātahi should be used as the primary instructional approach.
This is a collaborative reading experience where a kaiako and a group of ākonga read a text together which they may revisit over consecutive days. The kaiako typically reads aloud, modelling fluent reading, while ākonga read along where they can. The focus is on shared interaction between the kaiako and ākonga, and between ākonga, where connections with the text to prior knowledge are made.

I ngā marama e ono: Ngā Pukapuka hei kawe i te Pānui Ngātahi
Predictable and repetitive language patterns or repeated phrases. Encourages participation and allows ākonga to anticipate what comes next.
Examples:
Texts with engaging illustrations that provide visual support for understanding. Illustrations can help convey meaning, stimulate discussion, and enhance comprehension, making the reading experience more enjoyable and interactive.
Examples:
Contextually and culturally relevant content. Allows readers to connect their prior knowledge and experiences with the text facilitating understanding and encouraging engagement.
Examples:
Texts that include interactive elements such as dialogue, questions or prompts. Encourage discussion and active participation. They prompt readers to make predictions, share insights, and promote critical thinking and comprehension skills.
Examples:
Texts that contain some elements such as language structures and vocabulary that are slightly beyond the current level of proficiency of the ākonga to increase their linguistic range.
Examples:
Texts that include different ways of structuring text (e.g. rotarota, ngā tuhinga paki, ngā tuhinga pono). Provide opportunities for exploring different language features.
Examples:
I ngā marama e ono: Ngā Toi Mokopuna - Pānui
This section outlines the skills, strategies and knowledge required in pānui for the first six months.
Wetewetehia kia tika
He kaingākaunui te mokopuna ki te tika o te reo.
Te whāinga
Ākonga learning focuses on accurately using and understanding basic vocabulary and sentence structures.
Rangaranga Reo ā-Tā
Ngā Tohu Ako

Locate the beginning of a sentence.
Indicate left to right when following a sentence and return sweep when a sentence runs over more than one line.
Identify simple conventions (full stop, capital letters, spaces between words).
By the end of six months, ākonga need to be able to distinguish the sounds in te reo Māori (phonemes) when hearing texts being read to them or participating in pānui ngātahi.
Ākona kia mārama
He whakaaro arohaehae te mokopuna.

I ngā marama e ono: Te Aromatawai i te Pānui
Aromatawai ō te ako (of learning) and aromatawai mō te ako (for learning).
Aromatawai should be personalised to reflect the reality that ākonga are at different stages in their learning journey and move through that journey at different speeds. This includes valuing neurodiversity (i.e. that all brains function differently) which is particularly important for neurodivergent ākonga.
Ākonga should be encouraged and supported to understand the purpose of aromatawai and be active participants in gathering information through aromatawai activities such as self-reflection, self assessment and the creation of portfolios of work that demonstrate their learning.
MAHI AROMATAWAI: What to look/listen for, ākonga are:
Choosing to join in on the re-reading of texts used in pānui ngātahi.
Choosing to re-read texts used in pānui ngātahi independently.
Using words, phrases and sentences from a text used in pānui ngātahi in their writing and oral language.
Assessment tasks: (currently being trialled)
Te Mōhiohio Oro at 20 weeks
I ngā marama e ono: He Huarahi Pānui Anō
Pānui ki | Reading to:
Involves a kaiako or more skilled reader reading aloud to ākonga.
The focus is on reading in ways that engage the ākonga and foster the love of reading. Ākonga experience expressive and fluent reading as they listen.
Pānui tautokotahi | Reading with:
Involves the kaiako reading at the same time as ākonga during scheduled 'silent reading' times.
The focus is on modelling the value of reading and reading for enjoyment.
Pānui motuhake | Independent reading:
Refers to ākonga reading, viewing and comprehending and enjoying texts on their own.
The focus is on fostering a love of reading. The reader also has the opportunity to practice their knowledge, skills and strategies without direct support from the kaiako.
