This standard asks you to write something in te reo Māori about a topic or situation you know well—like your family, school, marae, or something that happened to you. Your writing needs to show that you can communicate your ideas clearly, even if you make some small mistakes along the way.
You use simple te reo Māori to express relevant information and ideas about a familiar topic, referring to past and present events, and your meaning comes through despite some errors.
You use a good range of grammar and vocabulary, your ideas flow better and make stronger connections, and errors don't get in the way of understanding your message.
You use a wide range of vocabulary and grammar confidently, connect your ideas smoothly and logically, your spelling and sentence structure are largely correct, and your writing is polished and easy to follow.
