For Inquiry we we learning more about Matariki. Matariki is a celebration and the New Year for Maoris. The Maori New Year is in June, and is oriented to harvesting, crops, and gathering with families and friends. In this DLO it shows how Polynesians back in the days navigated. Polynesian Navigators were really skilled and used Mother Natures and crops, to find out what season it was, how to navigate, find land, and much more.
Hi Chris;
ReplyDeleteFrom this blog post I really found it interesting and have told us anything we need to know. But your DLO has to be centre aliened.
Hello Chris
ReplyDeleteIt is cool how the Maori people used nature & their surroundings to find new land. I also like how you have explained that they used crops to check the season. Great Job.
