Literacy: Matariki Stars

LI: To create a google slide that covers all the important points on Matariki stars.


The above google slide showcases a group task by Florence, Sakina, Afatia and me on the topic of Matariki stars. It is a mixture of all the other google draws related to this topic and is a more advance version. First we included all the legends and beliefs related to the Matariki stars which were practiced in the past. Then we included the meaning of each star in the Matariki or Pleiades cluster which are Waiti, Waita, Waipunarangi, Tupu-a-nuku, Tupu-a-rangi, Uruarangi and Matariki. Then we added the information that how Matariki or Maori new year is celebrated now and then. We then finally added the information that how crops are harvested now days and ended our presentation. I learned a lot about the Maori New Year and many facts about Matariki and would love to learn more fun topics like this.
