Maths in Matariki

Matariki is coming! This special time of the year is not only about cultural celebrations but also offers an incredible opportunity to weave Maths into teaching and learning. From exploring symmetrical patterns in Māori art to analyzing data related to Matariki traditions, we can engage our students in a fun and meaningful learning experience. So, let's embrace the spirit of Matariki and embark on an exciting journey of integrated maths learning together!

Here is a LINK to some wonderful Matariki lessons on nzmaths. It covers levels 1- 4 of the NZC and provides a lot of ideas for cross-strand and integrated units. 

I highly recommend exploring these great resources as they contain excellent lessons and ideas for teaching and learning various maths knowledge and skills in a relevant practical context.

Happy teaching and learning during and about MATARIKI!
