Beware of weasels

WALT write an information report that informs the reader about a pest in Tāmaki Makaurau.

Did you know that weasels aren't as innocent as they seem ? Well yes they are killing machines Weasels are very dangerous to our environment, read on to find out more about this dangerous specie.

Weasels may look like a nice kind animal but you are wrong they can attack at any moment.

They are deadly with their dark eyes and sharp teeth just hunting for prey.

There appearance may fool you but once they show you who they really are they will become a nightmare.

Weasels are more of the silent type of animals. They like to creep up on their prey and bite then just go straight for it and get caught. It likes lots of shelter so it can have somewhere where they can sleep with either their family or by themselves.

Weasels eat Rats, Frogs, Birds and other animals like that. They are dangerous because they aren't just ay random animal. They can attack an animal bigger than them and win. They may look cute but looks can deceive you.

A fact about weasels is some specie fur changes colour in winter to blend in with the snow. Tips to reduce this pest is maybe getting a trap so that you can give them to a specialist.

Thank you for reading my work and it would be nice if you could leave me some feedback and feedforward.

Here is my Google drawing about a pests by the name of Weasel. They are very dangerous towards out native birds and kill them. We have been learning about pests for writing and I just wanted to share some information that I have been working on.

Mandala art

WALT write a detailed description about our Mandala art.

The purpose of this activity is trying to understand more about mandala art and trying to do more to investigate and discover facts about Mandala art.

In Mandala art all of the colours have meanings and that is why I have put my colours in order like this.

Techniques that I used to make my Mandala art is Just looking for shapes with a meaning that has something to do with Mandala art and just looking at the colors that might be mostly used. Also looking for a meaning for the colors was a great idea because it really helped me choose the colors.

Interesting facts about Mandala art.
-It comes from india.
-It is circles.
-You can do it with all different materials.
-There is always very small detail in the lines.

In the first layer the colors and shapes represent love and inner peace and is just giving everybody a really good vibe. The second layer going in the design is about sending positive vibes to everyone around you/us and making them feel welcome. The third layer is about being creative and caring for one another everyday. Last but not least the fourth layer is about everybody by putting a circle just to represent us and the world and just putting some crosses on the outside to represent god and the spiritual side of the world and just showing our ancestors and people we care about.

This could be an example if you would like to try and do Mandala art as well. Another example you could use is maybe on google you could try and look up step by step Mandala art and try and learnt from there. Mandala is a great way to relax and stay calm and maybe help you to meditate try and forget about your worries.
