Look what's in our room!

Our inquiry wall has been taken over by....... minibeats!   Spiders, snails, frogs, worms, beetles, butterflies and other little creepie crawlies can be seen on the wall in Team Pukeko. They are there because we are learning about the wonderful living world of minibeasts.

This week we learnt that minibeasts don't have a back bone or internal skeleton.  We also learnt that spiders are not insects!  They are Arachnids!  Did you know the largest spider in the world is the Goliath Bird Eating Spider?
We made spiders out of egg cartons.  We shared them at assembly and told the school interesting spider facts.
