In New Zealand we have many unusual animals. One of the most unusual is the kiwi bird - a bird that does not have wings and can not fly. Pretty strange, eh?! J.K. Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter books, has recently written a new book about strange or unusual animals called ‘Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them.’
For this activity, please watch this cool book trailer. Year 7 and Year 8 students in South Auckland, New Zealand helped to make it. Once you have watched the video, use your imagination and create your very own beast. What does your beast look, smell, feel, and sound like?
On your blog, post a description of your beast. Use interesting adjectives (describing words) to tell us about your beast.
My animal has a:
Big furry face , huge paws , sharp nails , smells like old dirt , long curled tail , long whiskers , loud roars , large beautiful round eyes.
My animal is a lion.
Hi Fiapo,
ReplyDeleteI like the words you used to describe your animal, when I red it I knew straight away that it was a lion or tiger because of the words that are hinting what the animal is. Keep up the amazing work.
Great Work

Kia ora Fiapo,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Mikey. I'm a member of the Summer Learning Journey team, along with Lee, Izzy, Sophie and Patricia. It's great to see that you've been actively participating in the programme. You've completed so many activities - great work! :)
I enjoyed reading your description of your fantastic beast. You've used some really great adjectives - before I read the last sentence, I was beginning to picture what it looked like in my mind. Does your lion have any special powers like the creatures on 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them'? My favourite beast from the movie is the Demiguise. He kind of looks like an old monkey and can make himself invisible!
I hope you're enjoying the last couple of weeks of your summer holiday Fiapo. I look forward to reading more posts from you soon. Until then, happy blogging! :)
