This is an external (exam-based) Level 1 standard worth 5 credits. Students read written texts in Tongan about everyday topics — things like school, family, hobbies, and holidays — and answer questions in English to show they understand what the texts mean. The exam is set and marked by NZQA, not your teacher.
What to do, grades and common mistakes
- ·Read written Tongan texts about familiar, everyday topics such as school life, family events, hobbies, or holidays.
- ·Answer questions in English about what the texts mean — including the main ideas, specific details, and the writer's purpose or viewpoint.
- ·Support your answers with evidence from the texts rather than your own opinions or outside knowledge.
- ·Answer every part of every question fully, including any 'why' or 'how' components.
You pick out the main ideas from the text and communicate a general sense of what it means. Your answers may be basic or brief and might include some information that isn't clearly linked to the text.
You go beyond the basics by connecting specific details from the text to support your answers. You choose relevant evidence, explain ideas clearly, and show you have read both the text and the question carefully.
