Classification

                       The past few weeks we have been classifying different kinds of animals

Te Reo Maori

               Last week and the week before we have been learning Te reo maori using Ka, E and I

Explanation

Bats are mammals right? Well yes. They are warm blooded mammals. Have you ever seen a bat before? I haven't but I wish to.  Are they an endangered species, yes. They were almost extinct from all of us from taking over the land. That’s why they were almost extinct. How can we save the lesser short tailed bats almost from becoming extinct?

Paragraph 1 is going to be what is killing the bats.

Paragraph 2 is going to be about their habitat loss. ( their forest are cut down )

Paragraph 3 is going to be how can people help the bats.

One reason why our bat are in danger of becoming extinct is because there are predators killing them such as, rats, stoats, cats and possums those are the predators that killing them. They are easy to kill. Possums climb up trees into the roosts (nest) to eat pups.

Habitats loss

Another reason.

What is harming the bats? Predators are harming the bats  because they kill them and eat them.

What’s keeping the bats Safe

Supplies food and water.

How can you help save the bats

You can help bats by doing, do not leave your cats escape, find the predators then kill them and keep them safe if you find them.

Endangered

Sadly the bats are endangered because they are almost extinct and their loss habitats.

Where they live

The tiny lesser short tailed bats live in the forest, “you know, I think so”. Well they live in the hollow trees or in a cave’s.

What they do

Bats look for food on the ground, they scuttle around to find some food like insects and seeds.  

They also scuttle like a rat.

Endangered too

What is endangered too is a wood rose. When a bat is extinct the woodrose would be extinct as well. The woodrose lives on the ground, it grows on the roots, native trees and shrubs.

Well that's enough stuff I can tell you all about bats well some of it.

Afew weeks ago we have been learning about different kinds of animals but I did a bat.

I am learning to use similar color hues and layering them so they can stand out.

Athletics

Yesterday 1st of December we were doing Athletics. It was a hot sunny morning. We went to Kaikohe East school to complete the challenges and we went to east to have our big Athletics day. We came outside to wait for the bus but suddenly it came, so went on the bus and got our gears on. We quickly went up in town and we arrived to the school, it was huge. Kids were coming out while we were walking down the field. It was nerve racking. I was so nervous I couldn't move but then we put up the tent then waited. Then all the schools came and they sat down as well. The time was ticking and we were still waiting but then the lady came and she                                                                                        yelled and she said " come in your school lines so we can get the morning started" so went in  the lines and we started. The best thing was i did high jump but I only jumped a little bit over 97cm. I was versing the bestest people from different schools, it was just me and sweyde. I was jumping so high but I couldn't make it but had a second chance and I made it it was scary. like other people they made it but some did not make it. thats enough word that can say.
