Matariki Poems


Matariki is the Maori new year
When the seven stars will appear
We can predict what the coming year will be like
From how clearly we can see them with our naked eyes
The legends behind it fascinates us.

Matariki is celebrated in many different ways
Adults are busy preparing the hangi
Kids  are having fun flying their kites
Stories are shared by elders
These are few of many activities we do to celebrate Matariki.
By Joshua

Shining in the night
People watching all over
A beautiful sight

Limerick
The stars they shine in the night
They blind us with their lights
Then they disappear
But have no fear
They will come back into sight

delicate  little lights  
Bright as the sun
A cluster of shooting stars
Speckled across the sky
Shimmering and glittering
Seven sisters
Stars

Order Of Operations


Today I played an Order of Operations game where I had an unfinished equation at the bottom of my screen. I had to use the numbers on top of the equation to solve it, but I had to use them wisely. It was a fun game to play, and I really enjoyed it, so I think that maybe I’ll play it again someday.
