Reading and comprehension
“Choose a story that you feel that you could read.”“I am wanting you to read it out loud, begin when you are ready” Record errors the client makes while reading as per Running Record method. Mispronounced words, omitted words, and words incorrectly identified are to be
counted as errors. Calculate the number of words correct at the level of the text. If the client score
corresponds with a A band, get the client to attempt the next level text. If the client gets a band of B record the corresponding Level. If the client gets a band level of C, get the client to read the text a level below. Once the client has read the text, ask the comprehension questions related to the
text. The client is allowed to refer to the text to help answer the questions. Record what the client says for each comprehension question.
If the client gets 80% or more of the questions correct in either the reading or comprehension tasks repeat the task with the next level text.

Level 4b Pine TreesThere are two types of pine trees commonly found on Mount Ruapehu. One, Pinus Radiata, is planted to help make the ground more stable, and is good for the mountain. The other is called Pinus Contorta, and is considered bad because it is a fast spreading weed. This second variety can grow from seeds that carry on the wind, but Pinus Radiata must be planted on purpose. So any time you see a random pine tree by itself, it is probably the bad kind. Tramping clubs often go up the mountains on pine tree pulling trips to remove Pinus Contorta.

Level 5a TechnologyIn recent years, technology has come a long way. One of the biggest achievements has been to make everything smaller. The first computers were enormous, originally as big as a room. Thanks to the invention of the microchip, they are now considerably smaller. And they are capable of doing a lot more.
The trend has been similar for cell phones too. The phones are getting smaller, but they have more features.
Another improvement was the compact disc. They have made it possible for us to record more information in a smaller space. They have also made records and cassette tapes obsolete in the music world, and are preferred to floppy disks in the computer world.

Level 5b Treaty of WaitangiOn 5th February 1840 Maori Chiefs from the Northern part of New Zealand gathered at Waitangi for a meeting. The representative of Queen Victoria were charged with entering into an agreement with the Chiefs whereby the Crown would govern and Maori would
8
have their rights protected. The agreement, the Treaty of Waitangi was prepared by Governor Hobson and translated into Maori by the Reverend Henry Williams.
Whilst 50 chiefs signed the Treaty on 6 February 1840 over the following months over 500 Chiefs signed as the Treaty was taken around the country.
Today there is much debate about the relevance of the Treaty and what it means. This arises because there are two versions; one in Maori and one in English that were signed by Chiefs. Waitangi Day, February 6 is now a public holiday to celebrate the agreement between Maori and the Crown.

Any valid answer. E.g. a. Avoid getting involvedb. Same language for each signatory
5. What benefits did the Maori Chiefs hope would be a result of the signing of the Treaty?
Any valid answer. E.g.a. Due to the differences in translation.
Level 6a A Night in the KitchenGareth was excited by the prospect of cooking a three-course meal for his colleagues. He thought carefully about what the menu for the evening would entail. With a minimum of thirty people expected, he had to be thoroughly prepared and extremely organised.
The nibbles were laid out on their respective platters, garnished with grapes and gherkins. The entrees served were delicious. So many options and therefore choices to be made. Cheeses, crackers, pate, dips, breadsticks and much more. The main course options available were marinated mussels, butter chicken or sirloin steak, each seasoned to perfection. Thinly sliced carrots, soaked in honey, were definitely the pick of the vegetables. Once his colleagues were apparently satisfied, Gareth brought out the ravishing dessert menu. Chocolate gateau, boysenberry pie with vanilla ice cream, and lemon cheesecake were all exquisitely displayed and tasted delectable.
Gareth enjoyed every moment he spent preparing the expansive smorgasbord and was pleasantly surprised at the success of the evening.

Level 6b KiwianaNew Zealand has its own unique pop culture known as Kiwiana. Only a New Zealander would invent an activity that encourages people to hurtle themselves off a bridge secured only by a rubber band. It is risky yet safe, bungy jumping is a craze that has now spread throughout the world.
A favouite for many New Zealand children is the clackety sound and spinning wings of the Buzzy Bee. Invented by two brothers, the delightful pull along toy played an integral part in any child’s life.
Number 8 wire, the solution to every problem, and the philosphy that many New Zealanders follow. Whether used to fix the old car or create a new toy, number 8 wire always found its use. The logic was also part of a New Zealander’s psyche. If it’s broken we will fix it; if it’s needed , then we will invent it.
New Zealanders have a passion for ice cream and are ranked at number 3 in world rankings of ice cream eaters. No childhood summer could be without Tip Top hokey pokey ice cream. This unique ice cream was only created in the late 1950s.
Level 6b Comprehension1. How many countries rank above New Zealand in the ice cream eaters rankings?
a. 22. Can your describe another item of kiwiana that might have been included in this

4. Identify the conditions that were required for kiwiana to develop?At least one valid answer. E.g.a. Isolated country – less well travelled populationb. Localised media
5. To whom would a local kiwiana exhibition appeal?Any valid answer. E.g.a. Collectorsb. Spur of the momentc. School groups
