Matariki Animation

For the third matariki activity, AJ and I had to make a animation about the winter and summer solstices, and how the seasons work. We learnt that the winter and summer solstices come twice a year (One for North hemisphere and one for the South hemisphere). Another thing we learnt that we get solstices because the Earth spins on it's axis. Also, because the Earth is tilted, one half of the world will experience winter and the other half will experience summer.

Matariki

For the second matariki activity, AJ and I created a DLO about Matariki and the six sisters. First we had to watch a video about the legends of the seven stars and then answer questions that we were given. We learnt the names of the seven stars and what they did in the video.
