Matariki quiz

For literacy medals today we had to write down three things that we learnt from a Matariki quiz. It was really hard because it's just so confusing for me but yea. I enjoyed taking the quiz cause it was pretty fun. I could have probably been better by adding more writing and information but anyway byyeeee. Peace out *Drop The Mic*

1. Matariki signals the Maori New Year. Its a time for Celebration and renewal in New Zealand and it begins with the rising of stars/ the 7 sisters of Matariki.

2. Matariki is a star cluster, not a constellation. A constellation is stars that form a shape but a cluster is a group of stars that are really close together.

3. In New Zealand people come together to celebrate by eating, singing Waitas, telling stories, playing music and remembering our ancestors.
