When we went to the museum I liked the insects. They were cool. I loved the museum. I liked the bus ride too. I liked all of the insects, but the best one was the tree weta. I saw two tree wetas and I saw a female weta too. I felt happy when we went to the museum.

On Tuesday, 8th of March all the Year 2’s went to the Auckland Museum to learn about insects. The classes had fun. The year 2’s saw the bones of the dinosaurs. Our group saw the mummy and the volcano too. My favourite part was the treehouse.
After lunch, the class walked to Weird and Wonderful to learn about insects; like moths, wetas, butterflies and ladybirds. I liked the Museum and I felt happy because the giant wata was big, very big. The trip was fun.

On Tuesday, 8th of March room 19 and all the year 2’s went to the museum to learn about insects. To get to the museum we all went on a cream and maroon bus. Then when we got there we ate morning tea. Next we explored the museum, Oliver and Finlay and I went to watch the volcano movie. We went inside the house to watch the volcano movie and Oliver was scared. After lunch I went to weird and wonderful. We saw insects and there were open draws and there were colourful butterflies in the draws. Then we moved to activities, and after that we went back to school. I was happy watching the volcano movie.

On Tuesday, it was museum day. My group saw a very old chair and we saw a lot of flags. Then we went to the music room and we used the questions. I had fun using the questions. Then we ate lunch. The insects had 6 legs, but not all people know insects have 6 legs. I know an ant is an insect. My favourite insects were the beetles and visiting the old classroom. I love the museum because there is a lot of interesting things. I felt very happy. Then I went on the bus.
