Reading Activity 2.

How has Matariki risen again?The Matariki risen again is when the celebration New Years Maori and the Matariki is so shiny that will make the whole world peaceful and also lovely.

If something is ‘faint’ can you describe what it might look like?I think it might look like that something bad might happen and also the Matariki might not even not come back ever again.

Why did New Zealanders initially not know much about Matariki?Because it was a Maori New Years culture and only the Maori people did not tell any english people or even other culture people. And that is why New Zealanders did not know about anything about the Matariki.

What are some activities people might do it celebrate Matariki?They can do a party like a birthday party or you could even celebrate somewhere cool and fun like legoland , Rainbow Send , The City or you could even go somewhere to eat just like a Restoronte .

Some Iwi celebrate Matariki differently, find some examples of how they celebrations differ?Something like to celebration like a birthday party or even a cool place to eat.

Name three other days of the year that are celebrated: May , June , Or maybe October.

Think about Christmas and how it is a public holiday, do you think Matariki should also be a public holiday? Yes/no? What is your reasoning for this? Christmas is a public holiday because it is how mad us’s birthday , God. God’s birthday is on Christmas day December 25.
