Kakapo vs. Kiwi


WALT: Compare the Kiwi and Kakapo in a Venn Diagram.

I have been learning about these two birds for inquiry and writing this term. I have written information reports on them.

I found this activity easy because I did not have to write much, I just had to add in the facts I have already learnt when I researched earlier in the term. I did have to learn how to use this Venn Diagram website though, when I understood what to do, I found it easy.

My next step is to learn about some native New Zealand trees too.
