This standard asks you to write an essay in te reo Māori about a topic from the exploratory world—something that matters to you or interests you, and that connects to Māori culture and perspectives. You need to express your own ideas and opinions clearly, making sure your reader understands your main point and how you've developed it.

You write in te reo Māori about a topic that matters to you, express some ideas and opinions, and your reader understands the basic point you're making, even if there are some errors.
You write more detailed ideas and opinions with reasons to back them up; your essay shows understanding of the topic, and even small mistakes don't stop your reader understanding you.
