Hello everybody! Its Cleo. I am going to be talking about our praying mantises.
There are many different types of praying mantis. We have a Blue Malaysian mantis and a Chinese mantis (Hes the one in the bottom left corner!) They will both grow to about 9cm but you get some smaller species too.
Mantis eat other insects. While they are little fruit flies are the best as they are small and non-harmful. They use their front legs called raptors to grab their pray!
We need to mist their enclosures once a day as they like a certain level of humidity.
I like them because they do a little dance and the reason they do this little dance is to check out their surroundings.
I have been doing home schooling all week I have read some of my book i am apposed to read but I still have three to go so I am happy😀 .

I wasn’t very successful at photographing wildlife today. There were lots of little birds about but my cat, Lisa, thought it was fun to scare them away. I still managed to get this photo of a chaffinch. Mrs. Madden
Today, I did art and made a ‘wash your hands’ poster. I enjoyed doing it and saw how important it was.
I got 10/10 in my maths test. I’m really pleased because it’s been hard working percentages all week. 🙂
I started my history project on 1936 to 1953. I found this very interesting.
We finished the day by making a veg broth.
Bye for now, see ya later! 😎
Today I did my spelling test and got 8/10. For my maths, I got 9/10 which mummy said was really good. We started a project on How We Used to Live 1936-1953. We watched the first programme about it. I made notes while I watched the film. I found it very interesting. In art, I made a poster telling people to wash hands. The poster is important and in our window for people to see. I found the first week of home school with Miss Mummy and Mr Mark quite tricky but very interesting I have learnt a lot and my maths has got better. Have a lovely weekend from Tanith xx
Today I started with maths and spelling, I then did some jumping around with my sister, climbing the ladder, bunny hops, Spider-Man, I was very tired after that
We then had lunch, afterwards we went outside and I moved some plant pots to see what insects I could find underneath. Then we went a walk in the woods.
This afternoon I found out my coaster could tile so I then wrote inside the tiles things I like and don’t like

Guess what some of my tadpoles have hatched! About 5 of them they don’t do much and they move very slowly. Its happy and sad because the ones that have hatched are eating the eggs of the ones that haven’t hatched so we will have less tad poles than we did eggs but still cool that they have begun to hatch.
I have completed the sumdog challenge -Miss Stapleton set I quite liked it.
For exercise I did some yoga today I watched a video and copied the moves I really enjoyed it. Today I also did some art I drew a cute Mandaloian from Star Wars but it is not finished yet.
See ya Joe
