Maori Language Week

For Maori language week we learned the Maori body song which is this :
Mahunga, pakihiwi, poku, hope, wae wae
Mahunga, pakihiwi, poku, hope, wae wae
Mahunga, pakihiwi, poku, hope, wae wae
Taringa, karu, ihu, waha e
We had to teach it to Room 5 and we also had to teach them what it means in english
Mahunga means head, pakihiwi means shoulder, puko means tummy, hope means hips, wae wae means legs, taringa means ear, karu means eyes, ihu means nose and last of all waha e means mouth.
