Reading Response

How do I write a 
short reading response???


Use these guidelines if you are stuck! You shouldn’t use the same sentence starters every time though!


Information about the text


Title of Book: Matariki
Author: Waitangi Teepa
Genre/Text Type: 
Date Read: 19/February/2020


One paragraph about the basic details of the text


This text was about a group of stars which is called “The Matariki” and there are other names as well.
I chose to read this text because I want to know what is Matariki and who are the seven sisters of Matariki. 


One paragraph about interesting details


One interesting/important character/event/theme/language feature was Matariki is also the name for the Maori New Year.


A quote/evidence that shows that you can see the stars of Matariki for most of the year, but they vanish from the night sky in Aotearoa in late April.


This means that the stars show up again in winter in late May or early June.


This relates to me/interests me because There are lots of ways to celebrate Matariki. This interests me because it is time to fish and enjoy being with family and friends.
