Maori-Matariki

This week for Maori we did a word search and we also sang a Matariki song- Waiti, Waita, Waipunarangi, Tupuanuku, Tupuarangi & Uruarangi are the names of the stars. This week we learned about what will happen if you kept picking sea food every day - If you pick sea food for a long time from the same area the sea food will be gone because there were no more to grow and produce.

Matariki-Maori

This week for Maori we had Whai Odie. We were learning about Matariki. If we didn't finish our Pepeha's we had to finish it. First had to tell Whai Odie some things about Matariki. Then we had to get in partners. In our partners we needed one chrome book and had to find stories of Matariki on youtube. We needed to find four stories of Matariki. After that we had to tell Whai Odie some things we discovered about Matariki. Once we finished that we learnt a new song about the six sisters and the Matariki. We also sang another Maori song. Matariki is on June the 15th. When it is Matariki which is Maori new years we celebrate and have feasts. Links to videos:A Matariki Story, The story of Matariki, Matariki & Matariki.
