Matariki Part 2! (:

Were back again with my reading part 2!

So today I have already finished reading the article about Matariki. I learned new things about the celebration. I never knew how important Matariki was to other families until today. After reading the article, I had another task to do and I'm almost done with it. I had to answer 4 questions by using my knowledge from what I read in the article. Then I had to select 3 te reo words and use it in a sentence. I have not got up to the 3 te reo words, but I hope you like the answers I used in the questions! (:

What is Matariki?

Matariki is a celebration of the ones that past in the recent years and celebrating this new year and the next upcoming years.

Why did Maori observe Matariki?

Matariki is important to us and other families because, it’s about gathering all together for the ones that past away in the recent years.

How did Maori traditionally celebrate Matariki?

They have a small hangi to begin with, then they have a karakia and they finally have a feast to eat.


When and how should Matariki be celebrated?

Matariki should be celebrated with all family and friends. And the date changes every year for Matariki so, this year it was supposed to be celebrated on June the 5th.

I hope you liked part 2 and please keep checking on my blog for part 3! (:
