Show your understanding

1.Why did the grasshopper decide to charge the huhu grubs for making music for them? For their party. He wanted to earn food and pay back the ants


2. Why did the ants sigh at the grasshopper? Because it was so typical of a grasshopper to do this .

4. What elements of fable did this story have? Animals that behave like humans and make us learn a lesson.


Find the Moral =  make hay while the sun shines= to prepare when you can before the hard times come

Make inferences =  the ants talk in sharp sentences because there are a

 lot of them and because they are too busy.

Digital Technoligy Matariki Project-bluebots and QR codes

For Matariki we learnt about the stars we made a special bluebot mat. On the mat we had QR codes and when you scanned them you learnt about the stars. The kids had to code the bluebots to get to the QR codes. We learnt that there are nine stars in the cluster and that each star has its own name and something that it is connected to the sea or the weather.
