My reading practice has improved by placing a stronger focus on exploring new vocabulary within the Māori pūrākau we’ve been studying. The rich and descriptive language in these stories provided valuable opportunities to unpack new words and phrases with the children, breaking them down and discussing their meaning in context. This not only helped grow the students’ vocabulary but also supported their ability to infer meaning, as they began to use clues from the text and the language around new words to better understand what was happening in the stories. It’s made our reading sessions more purposeful and deepened comprehension through a focus on language.
