KIDS TEACH

Kids teach is a way for children to teach other kids things that they enjoy.

You start by choosing a topic, collecting the materials (if needed) and teaching it to the class.

I was a learner and in Meg and Isla's dancing group. It was really fun learning the shake it off dance. Although sometimes Jasmine got a bit angry. Other than that it was awesome.

The only thing I would change is I wish Lily and I could have done our making bracelets and key chains.

KAKAPO

This is the Kakapo, a giant, flightless New Zealand parrot that can weigh up to 4 kilos.(the world's heaviest bird) It is nocturnal although sometimes comes out just before dusk. It can also live for more than 100 years!

Our famous ground dwelling parrot looks a lot like the Kea (another NZ native bird.) It has bright green and yellow feathers, grey beak and feet.

The Kakapo lives in New Zealand forests and climbs trees instead of flying, hence being the world's heaviest bird.

As it states in the last paragraph, the Kakapo climbs trees to get food. Speaking of food, its favourite thing to munch on are the seeds from the Rimu tree.

The Kakapos Latin name translates to something like; owl face soft feathers. And it does have very soft feathers and an owl like appearance.
