Year Four Manu Moana

Today Year Four used our literacy skills to find out more about the sea birds that like in Tikapa Moana / The Hauraki Gulf.

How do we know an animal is a bird?

 "Wings and feathers" Noah

"Different beaks" Kaiya

Kanuka "Different kinds of feathers"

"Hollow skeleton" Andrew

"They are close relatives to dinosaurs" Zimon

"They lay eggs" Juliet


We split into groups and researched sea birds in general from four articles.  Each group of four presented four facts to the class.


Afterwards, we narrowed our research to focus specifically on one sea bird.  We needed to create a  fact file with their name, habitat, diet, photo and  how we can help them.
