Science- In Science, we are learning about living things, with a focus on animals, their needs, and how we care for them. This week, the children visited our MUDLA room to explore a range of animals including hopping mice, lizards, fish, and turtles. The students had the exciting opportunity to pat a lizard, watch how slowly the long-necked turtle moves, and see how fast the short-neck turtle can runĀ (which gave us a little surprise!). We also visited the fish farm, where we observed larger fish such as the barramundi. Mr McCarthy explained the needs of these animals and how he cares for them each day. The children are developing their understanding of different animals, their habitats, and the ways people help them stay healthy and safe.
Technologies- This week on Tuesday was the big day! The students, after making their boats last week, got to test them out. The challenge was for the boats to stay afloat for one minute. Afterwards, the students reflected on what they had built and wrote about what they would change if they got to make their boat again.
