There are several maths skills that can incorporate the Matariki whetū/stars, so I created this activity for teachers that want to bring Matariki into their maths lesson, or who want to weave maths skills with the environment. These activities are ideal for year 3-6 students and can be adapted if needed. The questions cover measurement of length using rulers (to the nearest cm, but if you have children that want to measure in mm, that’s great), positional language, identifying shapes, and locating Matariki whetū/stars using coordinates. There are two options to choose from with the questions and the questions are editable, so you can adapt them to your needs. This activity is ideal for the whole class, small groups, early finishers, and rotating stations. You’ll receive 2 PDFs and 2 editable PPTX files.

Children often find it hard to remember the difference between area and perimeter, which affects their ability to do calculations correctly. So, the more memory aids we can use to help them, the more likely it is that they will remember the difference. With this activity, children color in the word “AREA” which covers the area of the rectangle, and they write the word “PERIMETER” around the perimeter of the rectangle. I’ve included a full page and half page option. You may also like an engaging, real-world activity like this one to practise area and perimeter.
