Ringa Wera, Ringa Toa

Turn the classroom into a Māori MasterChef kitchen. Ākonga explore kai and cooking while using te reo Māori to describe ingredients, flavours, instructions, and food experiences. Students plan, prepare, and present dishes while practising giving directions, describing quality and quantity, and talking about what they have cooked. 

Through collaborative cooking challenges and creative presentations, learners use language in meaningful, hands-on contexts. This unit blends language learning, teamwork, and culinary creativity in a lively cooking competition-style experience.
