  1. Kia ora Mrs Grant, I really liked this activity I thought this was going to be challenging but it was very fun and creative. This activity helped me learn new things and how to create insects using nature materials.

  2. Bula Vinaka Mrs Grant. The Insect Art activity was really fun and helpful for me to get outside and run around my backyard. It was quite difficult to do the activity but I managed to do it and it was awesome. Here the link https://gissaum.blogspot.com/. Thank you Mrs Grant.

  3. Kia Orana Mrs Grant! I really enjoyed this activity.
    I did it outside so we don't make a big mess inside. Even though you only need a little stuff to make it.
    I just saw it 15 minutes ago, so I quickly ran outside to get the things I need.

    Thank you Mrs Grant I really enjoyed this!

  7. Hi Mrs Grant, this is Roneeza from St Patrick's School. I was just wondering, since I have a small back yard with limited resources to do this project, is it possible for me to continue on to the next? Obviously if I were able to, I'd name my posts in the Week and Day they were supposed to be published on.. If that makes any sense. For example if I were to end up doing this activity I'd type down, "Insect art - Week 1 Activity 2" as my title, or maybe I can remove the Week 1 Activity 2 and put it in the labels section. Please tell me your thoughts on this.
    Kind regards, Roneeza

    1. Kia ora Roneeza, you are very welcome to do the activities in any order that works best for you. To help the SLJ commenting team know which activity your post is for, include the name of the activity in your title. Your example is spot on. You need not worry about the Weeks and Days.

      I have a small back yard too. Your post made me think... are there other objects I could use to create insect Art with around the house? e.g. lids, objects I might find in a sewing kit or toy box?

      However do go ahead and continue on to the next activity if you wish.

      Happy New Year,
      Mrs Grant
