Reading.

Kowhai reading group have been reading non-fiction books. Today they used the contents page to identify what they were interested in to find facts about Kangaroos. In their own words they recorded information about Kangaroos and shared their new learning with the class.

Some facts we found out about Kangaroos were:

• A kangaroo has big strong legs. It moves by jumping.
• When a baby kangaroo is born it is as small as a little finger. It cannot see, and its back legs have not grown yet.
• The tiny baby stays in the warm dark pouch until it is 5 months old.
• A baby kangaroo is called a Joey.
