Whakatauki

In Maori we have been learning about a Whakatauki

A Whakataui is a proverb, what is truly valued in the Maori Culture. 

The Whakataui that we have been learning about is if we all shared then no one would go without. 

We would be able to provide for all that come to us.

There are also Proverbs in the Bible that encourage us to share.

Read these proverbs : Proverbs 19:17; 22:9; 31:20.

Jesus also showed us the teachings of God when he feed the multitudes of people with the fish and the loaves. Read more about this in the Gospel of John: 6 or the Gospel of Matthew: 14.

Evolution animals

In room 6 we have been learning to classify animals scientists classify animals and plants into groups to easily identify ,sort and name them.

Classify = SORT. There are may different ways to group living organism. You can classify animals into two main groups. Vertebrate or Invertebrate. All vertebrates have covering of skin that protects them , A skeleton inside there body , Muscles that help them move, Blood moves through tubes, Lungs or gills for breathing                                                       




                                                                           

90% of all animals are invertebrates 

Tend to be small because they do not have a back bone

Many live in the ocean because the water helps support their weight.

Some have a hard covering or shell on the outside of their bodies for protection - Insects, spiders, crabs, snails and clams.
