Maori Unpacked, 10, Numerals

10

Numerals

How many words?

tahi, one
rua, two
toru, three
at least three!

That was tiring. What about lunch?

Maybe after we've set up a Numerals Box.

Or after we've put numbers on the walls above the windows in your room.

Or after we've made mobiles with items like, say, apples, with tahi,
rua and toru aaporo

Or we could have a poster above or beside a fruitbowl asking
E hia nga aaporo
How many apples
and you could reply as you walk by, just for practice
Kotahi
if there is one
E rua
if there is two and
E toru
if there is three
