Wayfinding Navigation

 Kia ora bloggers,

Today I will be teaching you an amazing millennial knowledge of our Polynesian ancestors. In the olden days Polynesian people never had a GPS to use while there were sailing. They used the sun, moon wind, stars, waves and sea creatures they also memorised all the important stars names.  

Here is a picture of a Polynesian navigating with the stars:

Sometimes they even observe the sun and the moon rising position and setting position.

In Paterson class our main topic is Wayfinding Navigation. I enjoyed going on a site to

perform how to navigate with the stars. What I found challenging was the amount of books I 

had to read. 

You can recognise Matariki by looking a bit closer to the sunrise is the best view to see Matariki. Now it's you turn you have a go looking outside at sunrise. I tried but didn't manage to find it maybe you can find it. Bye bloggers 👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋👋.
