Museum trip!

THE MUSEUM  TRIP 

A few weeks ago rm 5 went to the musem to learn about polithanta the snail.
We learnt what kind of animals attacked the snail:the Rat, Pig ,Possom and Weka.
We learnt about some of the traps for the animals that hurt and kill the polithanta and other snails.We also learnt about the different types of snail shells and we found it really fun.
We got to find rocks that were souposed to be snails and they had names on them that told you what killed them. We made a graph on the predotors that kill them and the possum  kills the most.There was a big polosterine snail as big as a three year old and soon the staff are going to hang it up on a shelf next to a big Dinosaur. We got to draw a picture of a BIG snail and we had to try to get all the tiny details on the paper.
