Limerick Poem

The Matariki stars shine way up above.
The stars represent true love.
People adore this sight.
While it is still shining bright.
To keep warm they wear thick gloves.

The way to treat your Chromebook right

My Comic Strip.

Comic strips are a clever way of telling stories that combine pictures and a small number of sentences.

Our WALT was to Come up with ways to use our Chromebooks appropriately .

To succeed in making this we had to: 

1.  Use at least 4 ideas of ways to use our devices Appropriately

2. each idea must have a picture representing what we were saying.

3. 

And we had to use speech bubbles to explain what to do and what not to do.

 

Do you agree on what I said?

What is Matariki.


Matariki is the cluster of stars the Pleiades , they rise in winter and maori celebrate as a new year. In maori Matariki means ¨eyes of God¨ or ¨little eyes¨. According to maori legend , when Ranginui and Papatuanuku were separated Tawhirimatea took his eyes out and threw them into the sky. 

Matariki was a time of celebrating death and new life. In the 21st century Matariki became popular again and people celebrate it with kites, hot air balloons, and fireworks. The upcoming dates of Matariki are the 15th of June and in 2019 it is to be celebrated on the 10th of June.
