Whakaaroarohia:
Review the kupu hou lists that you have created. Create a mindmap that groups the words according to their meanings and the context in which they are used. What connections can you make between words? What patterns can you see? Test yourself.

Review the grammar points that you have covered. As you review the sentences that you have learnt to use, make sure you understand the grammatical structures that form them. This broader understanding will help you to use them as templates for creating more sentences.
