Suffixes DLO
This is my literacy DLO we were learning about suffixes,what they are,what they mean and how they change word meanings. Here is the DLO my friends and I came up with to share our learning. I liked that my group and I were trying our best and I hope this happens again. We were trusted to work unsupervised to get this done. We kept making mistakes, but we persisted. It was fun!
Sandflys
This week I've been reading Te namu, I hope you like it.
Te Namu - The Nuisance Fly by Ross Calman
This book is mostly about Sandflies being annoying to the people, where are sandflies found and their life cycle. Sandflies are found throughout New Zealand wherever there is flowing water and bush. They are often found at beaches and the edges of lakes or swamps.
After a meal of blood, the female lays her eggs. She lays them on the rocks or plants, just under water, in a fast-flowing stream or river. After the larvae hatch, they eat tiny particles that are in the water. The larvae turn into pupae and spend around twelve days in this form before becoming adult sandflies. The whole life cycle lasts around six weeks.
