For literacy PP (Passion Project) I decided to do a gaming review.
A gaming review is something to describe a game on the app store.

My W.I.T

Me and my group has finished our W.I.T. Our group chose our art style and the art style was impressionism, I have a photo so you can see what it looks like.
We practiced for a long time and we still couldn't find out how to do impressionism so we decided to use our fingers it kind of looks like dot art but when it is far away and it looks awesome!
The meaning of our art is that you can only catch about 3 fish a day.
I am very proud of what my W.I.T looks like.

Finneshed W.I.T!


YAY! We have finally finished our W.I.T! Our resource was buggymon cards. I had a lot of fun, my favorite part was drawing the symbol. We had a few arguments but it was fine. Our target audience was te puawai. We made buggymon cards because a lot of kids in te puawai like buggymon cards and if they found a bug in the bush they can look at a card and they would find the info about the bug.

NZ Praying mantis

NZ Praying mantis!    


Did you know that there are two types of Praying mantis? - the bright green NZ praying mantis,  and there are also the green and brown African praying mantis!


Diet!
Praying mantis only eat live insects for food. This can be flies, crickets, moths, caterpillars and locusts. Praying mantis have very strong legs they can jump 3x their own body size, which makes them very quick hunters.  They also have grooves on their legs that are spikes so the Praying mantis can hook the bug to the ground when attacking.


Predators
A praying mantis’ predators are Millipedes, Jumping spider, wolf spider. And much more spiders! resizedimage600450-PrayingMantisMarch2012.jpg


Protection

Life cycleaa9ecd64fa02bd5572dd72f8b5ba601e.jpg
The Praying mantis starts as a soft egg case.  After a week or two the soft egg turns into a hardened egg case.  Once the eggs hatch they turn into little praying mantis called nymphs.  Then they grow up into praying mantis, And the praying mantis lays another egg!


Praying Mantises are fascinating invertebrate.   Did you know that Boy and Girl praying Mantis both can lay eggs?
