hello readers this week we have been working on matariki. Matariki is a maori new year were 7 sisters are stars, how they got up there is Tāwhirimātea was so angry because his brothers pulled there mother/Papatūānuku and dad/Ranginui so he grabbed his eyeballs out of his eyelid and crush his eyeballs then he threw the crushed eye up into the sky. I really like working about Matariki, the thing that i found hard was probably typing up all the ideas from the videos up onto the doc. Hope you like my work.
create task: 1, for this create task we had to take ideas from the videos or websites that we had to watch or read this one was the most challenging for me.
Video #1
Matariki with glitter and silver and glue.
Sisters fighting.
Ranginui, papatuanuku,kei tango tango, wainui are the parents, puanga/ red , takurua/ blue star, the sisters are, Matariki, waiti, waita, waipuna rangi, tupu a nuku, tupu a rangi, uru rangi.
Matariki is a family of stars.
Matariki has seven sister stars.
Wainui said we need to give our sisters a task. I have an idea about kei Tango Tango that should be a sign for the new year.
The girls are then given their responsibilities.
It is bad luck if you can not see the 7 sisters.
It is good luck when you can see them clearly through the sky.
So the sister just needed an important task to do.
Matariki is also the name for the maori New year.
They disappear into the night sky in late April.
The stars appear again in late May or early June.
When the stars appear it is a sign that the maori new year has begun.
There is much to celebrate.
The matariki has many other names, like the 7 sisters.
Matariki is known for the biggest star or the oldest sister and guides her younger sisters to their positions.
The old stories say that when the stars shine the sky will be warm and good for growing crops, And there will be plenty of seaweed together, plants will grow ta;ll and strong.
We can celebrate Matariki by many ways, it is a time for sharing family stories, for learning about the land and how to look after it, it is a time for hearing stories about the old days, for learning about how people used the stars in the past, it is a time for plant trees and winter crops, it is a time to fish for kaimoana, it is a time for making things, to learn how to weave and carve, it is a time for making and flying kites, Matariki is a time to make plans for the future, and to forgive and forget problems of the future, it is a time to enjoy family and friends.
Not all iwis celebrate matariki at the same time.
Some might celebrate matariki on the first full moon.
A cluster of stars that are near each other.
The stars join together to become a pattern.
Only six or seven are visible without a telescope.
There are five hundred stars in the matariki cluster
You can see them before sunrise.
The brighter and clearer the stars seemed, the warmer the growing season would be, ensuring a good harvest.
Papatuanuku was so angry that he ript is eyes out and crushed them and threw them up into the sky.
The stars of Matariki were used for people to find their way
This story is about how a school celebrates matariki, At their school called Puanga Ramanui. They watch the sky bling and They have a hangi. It apparently feels like your staying at a marae.

this week for reading we have been making connections with ourselves, other text/movies and the world, The book that i have been reading is about how about this wimmark thinks he is not special. He keeps on getting dots and he wants stars.
i liked this book because it really related to it. Why i liked the create tasks is because it gave me a BIG challenge. The only down thing about the story was it made me CRY cause it was sooooo sad. Also the only down thing about the create tasks was that i was stressing out ALOT.

hello reader for 3 weeks now I have been working on a story about how Winnie and friends went to willow bank but some drama happened, find out what happened in the story!
Once upon a time Winnie and friends were sitting around the hazel brown ancient table debating about where they might go on this glorious day. Then all the sudden they had agreed to go and see their best mates at willow bank. Individually they all rushed out the door, so joyful. As they walked down the luminous city, Winnies angelic honey yellow eyes twinkle in the sun as they bolted because they could see the Willow bank sign, as they were running Winnies chubby cheeks were bouncing like a basketball.
Winnie and friends all walked into willow bank very excited, so excited that they all were about to blow up. They grabbed all the food for their friends and carried on to the front desk.
They put all of the food onto the desk and then went to go and find his credit card, he soon found it and swiped it and then the lady said um what is this money. Winnie soon said a hundred acre wood money. Oh we only take New Zealand money the lady said, oh said winnie then he dropped and walked away very sad and devastated.
All the sudden he saw a familiar face in disguise. It was Christoper Robin! He came up to Winnie and handed him his birthday savings. All of a sudden Winnie felt warm inside and very shocked.Winnie went sprinting inside then the rest followed him. They had been accepted into the animal exhibit. They fed all the animals except one and it was one of their old friends ostrich.
