Feathery Friends
This task is about finding the main idea of the text.
A teacher read Feathery Friends by Minnie Binihi Takaro (pages 2-7, Connected 1, 2001) to her class. Then she asked, "what's the main idea?"
Jake said, "it's about the rat never having seen such a weird collection of feet."
Sina said, "different birds have different sorts of feet because they live in different places."
Pita said, "some birds have small feet and some have large feet."
Anna-Marie said, "there are birds that have webbed feet and birds that have long toes."
