Weebly.com is proving excellent for building our class website, however at this stage they don't provide an option to 'moderate' comments before they are posted live.
For this reason have started using http://kps3.blogspot.com/ as our blogging tool.
Species we would miss...
Endangered Species Term 2, Week 5
Max: I would feel sad if frogs were extinct because I like fogs even though some [most] people don't.
The three negative things about their extinction would be... There could be too many flys, you couldn't keep them as pet, and you couldn't see them on bush walks.
Olivia: I would be sad if Kiwis were extinct because we might not be called Kiwis any more. Also kiwis are our native bird. Some tourists come to New Zealand to see kiwis. WE NEED TO LOOK AFTER OUR KIWIS.
Ana: I think I will be sad if Whales will be extinct. because they are Marine Mammals and so are we.
Simran: I would be sad to see a species of the Tiger to go because 3 have already been extinct.
Codey: I would be sad if the kiwis were extinct because we would lose our kiwi icon, we wouldent be able to see them at the zoo, we would lose a species special to New Zealand.
