Matariki Stories

Room 2- Year six and seven students from Edmund Hillary School spent the final parts of Term Two learning about Matariki and associated myths, stories and legends. Learners focused on their language use and retelling techniques, alongside the visual impact of storytelling in a digital format.

Some students recorded audio in the background to help build the story and have a greater impact on the reader's senses. Students used other digital stories online to help them in their design and construction of learning. Below are some screenshots of the images used to retell the stories. Head over to the class blog to view their short films and to leave your positive, helpful and thoughtful comments.
