Te tito i te whakaari
This standard asks you to write a play or dialogue piece (a dramatic text) in te reo Māori. You need to make sure the plot fits the topic you've chosen, and you should use literary devices (like proverbs, metaphors, or characterisation) that help bring the characters' inner feelings and thoughts to life on stage.
You write a clear dramatic text where the plot fits your chosen context, and you use some literary devices to show what the characters are thinking and feeling.
Your dramatic writing is well-constructed with a plot that clearly carries your chosen topic, and your literary devices deliberately work together to make the characters' inner lives visible and meaningful.
Your play is carefully crafted and refined, the plot skillfully brings out the full depth of your topic, and your literary devices are used with sophistication to reveal the characters' inner emotional and psychological layers in a powerful way.
