I have been learning about matariki, I have made a piece of writing.
Here it is.
Matariki is a cluster of 9 stars and is also a star in the group, in which the maori celebrate.
One way people celebrate is having a big breakfast. One meal they have for breakfast is a hangi. A hangi is a meal that is cooked underground, and contains lots of meat and vegetables.
Matariki celebrations also can involve flying kites, fireworks, and hanging lanterns. Flying kites is a maori tradition.Fireworks are a cool sight and happen in July.Lanterns are lights that are also a tradition.
Matariki is a cluster of 9 stars, their names are: Matariki, Waiti, Waita,Waipuna rangi, Tupu-a-rangi, Tupu-a-nuku, Pohutukawa, uru-a-rangi, and Hiwa-ti-rangi.
Matariki represents the season of winter where the sun sets, the crops start to die, the stars sparkle and the cold arrives.
I have also made a Matariki star.
Here it is.
