WALT: understand how and why landforms continuously change

This week as part of our inquiry learning we explored what effect water would have when we poured it into water trays that contained different types of soil.  We observed what happened and used the see, think, wonder strategy and the critiquer and constructor concepts to answer our questions and to explore.  This was part of our class inquiry about what landforms are made of and how gorges form.  Ms Heal

WALT: understand how and why landforms continuously change

Today room 5 embarked on an adventure to the Manawatu river to make some discoveries about landforms. They collected rocks and studied the cliff faces. They had to make observations about what they saw and have brought these back to school to explore and develop wonderings. Please stay tuned for some more action. Posted by room 5

Endangered Species

This week in room five we did a RAS Alert about endangered species.  The children were asked to watch this video and identify nine animals that are endangered and identify some of the challenges that endangered animals face. Ms Heal

WALT: Using voicethread to record our ideas

Room 5 decided that the flow of happiness that they wanted to create for their class is the Famous Flying Flamingos. I have now invited the children to explore what the concept means for them as individuals and members of the class. Children will use voicethread to record their ideas.
