Summary

Cockroaches detect danger by using their cerci and wind sensors. They are survivors because the use of their special sensors help them avoid many predators.

This week we read and discussed a non fiction text called Cockroaches: Born Survivors. This text is about information of a cockroach but it’s mainly about how a cockroach survives.

For our activity we had to find 20 important words and choose 6 most important words. Then we put those 6 most important words into a summary.

Cockroaches have two long spiked tails called Cerci. The cockroaches also like to hang around dark and warm places until it's night. The characteristics of a cockroach is that they are really fast and they can detect danger by their wind sensors.

An interesting fact that our group found out about cockroaches is the fact that cockroaches have been on Earth for over 300 millio years.

We found this activity interesting because we learnt many different things about cockroaches and had fun when learning.
