Commentary:
Generally, students performed well in this task. Most students were able to identify where they were from (or where they lived) and talk about important features of that place (questions 1, 2 and 3). Fewer students (just under half) were able to explain the origin of one of the names associated with that place. Fewer students were able to identify a second or third place in Aotearoa along with important features of those places (76 percent and 54 percent respectively). Knowledge of tribal “pepeha” assisted students with this task.
