Facts about the Weta

The Weta is only found in New Zealand and is so old it has outlived the dinosaurs.

Weta are large by insect standards. Some of the giant Weta are enormous and are amongst the heaviest insects in the world

The Weta is sometimes called the dinosaur of the insect world

The Weta is more primitive than the tuatara. The Weta has changed very little in the past 100 million years.

Weta have their ears on their front knees and can feel the vibrations of noises around them.

My maths

WALT: I am learning to add and subtract using comparisons of sets without counting down or counting up.

Martin has $7, and David has $3 more than Martin. How much money does David have?

7 + 3 = 10 -- 3 more than 7 is 10, so 7 + 3 = 10

Today I went on Spelling Bee on studyladder you have to spell words that appears on the screen. I got 200 points on spelling bee I was on the game for about a half-hour. It is a really cool learning activity for kid that are 5-12.

I also played walk the plank it a game that you have to guess the word so that you can stay on the boat. I got 50 points when I played that game it was really fun. It is a really good learning activity for kids these ages 5-12.
