The topics covered in this set are thoughtfully curated to include everyday vocabulary such as:

  • Whānau (family)
  • Emotions/Feelings
  • Clothing
  • Animals
  • Food and Drink

Packaged in a convenient card box for easy storage, this set of flashcards is a versatile and invaluable resource for anyone committed to learning and teaching te reo Māori.
