Matariki questions -what is Matariki

What is the name given to the central star in the cluster?

It is Tupu-A Nuku because it means to grow and its just like the stars are growing up to be higher in the sky. 

 Do you think Matariki lost is significant?

No I don’t think it did because loads of people still celebrate it and make kites. People love Matariki because it is a Maori celebration and they feel like keeping that tradition of celebrating it. 

What are the Maori string patterns known as in Teo Maori?

They are used for making different things to represent things, like if you make a star it symbolises Matariki. They can also be used to teel stories.

In kakapo Rua reading group has been reading a book called boy on a bike. We had to pick a place that Mac went to and find out about it. 

Auckland is mostly known for its yummy food and Skytower view. Auckland has over 50 volcanoes and over 1,630,000 people live there in 2021. You can do lots in Auckland like the Museum, art gallery, Waiheke Island, and go to see the sky tower. Did you know that Auckland, It is 312.2km from Kaitaia. The skytower was built in 1994 and it took them two years and  nine months just to build it. Auckland is the closet city to Kaitaia.

How does Meg feel about her father? 

She feels sad and joyful at the same time. She loves him but whenever somebody brings him up she just feels like she wants to kill them because she misses him so much. She sometimes even want to get in a fight when they laugh and talk about him. Meg also feels angry at him because he is not with them his experiment went wrong (hes a scientist), Meg feels that her dad is really handsome but not in a weird way. Meg really does miss her dad. I feel that Meg is sad but trying to hide it.

A wrinkle in time
In chapter 1 of a wrinkle in time Mrs Whatsit was a stealer who stole sheets from Mrs Buncombe. Meg didn't at all trust Mrs Whatsit because she could have stolen something from Meg and her family. All of the characters in chapter 1 have all different personalities,thoughts and all different perspectives. Something in chapter 1 that stood out is that Meg’s personality was the strongest and most bravest. Chapter 1 was mostly about Mrs Whatsit and her naughty ways(she acted nice)
Mrs Whatsit got a nice yummy tomato and lettuce salad made by the one and only Charles Wallace.
