Year Four Wheke Wheke

 







Today we began our lesson with some guerrilla art. We wanted to spread the word to parents about the importance of bringing litterfree lunches. 

Afterwards, we learnt about fascinating wheke / octopuses. 

What do we already know about octopuses?

Milana "They camouflage against anything they touch to stay safe from predators"

Flynn "They have nine brains"

Awa "They can fit in small spaces"

Allan "They have a beak like mouth"

TJ "They have suction cups under their tentacles"

Jessica "They can mimic predators"

Payton "They can breathe under water"

Ruby "They have eight long tentacles"

What we found out many more amazing facts like how them use their siphon to propel themselves forward, their body parts in Maori and how to draw a realistic octopus.


Next time we're looking forward to taking more action for environment and learning about mango / sharks.
