Read & Talk
Read the passage first. Use Listen after you have tried it yourself.
Read the River Walk passage first. Listen after you have tried it.
Hana and her whānau follow a track beside the awa. The water sparkles in the sun and a tūī calls from a kōwhai tree. A pīwakawaka flits from branch to branch while tiny fish dart between the rocks. At the bridge, Hana reads a sign asking visitors to care for the river. The whānau carry their rubbish home and leave the place as they found it.
What is the main idea?
Name one bird Hana sees or hears.
What do the whānau do with their rubbish?
Why is the sign important?
