In Maori we have been learning about a Whakatauki


A Whakatauki is a proverb, what is truly valued in the Maori Culture. 
The Whakatauki 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-vertebrates

In Room 6 we have been learning classify animals,scientists classify animals and plants into groups in order to easily identify,sort,and name them.
Classify=SORT.
There are many ways to group living organisms.One way is according to how they use their food for energy.Classifying animals,you can classify animals into two main groups,vertebrates or invertebrates.
All vertebrates have:Covering of skin that protects them,Skeleton inside their body,Muscles that help them move,Lungs and gills for breathing.






Invertebrates

90 % of animals are invertebrates!

Tend to be small because they do not have a backbone.

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

Some have a hard covering or shell n the outside of their bodies for protection
