                        W.A.L.T Draw inferences from a piece of poetry!

The past week we have been working on the Huia and the facts about them and how they past and what happen to them!In the 19's there was a bird called the Huia. It was a beautiful black and white bird.But something bad happen to it..Won of the Maori tribe leader wanted a nice coat.So the people in his Pack looked for a really good bird to hunt down and use its feathers for the coats.Sometimes people just use the feather to sell them and earn lots of money beacuse when they found that bird everyone wanted to so when someone saw a Huia they would shoot it and use it feathers to get money.
