Measurement Length

My Reflection: 

This term we focused on Measurement. We have been doing some follow up tasks on Matific. Here is a screen recording of me working on one of my tasks. 

STEM CHALLENGE

My Reflection

This term we did The Marshmallow Challenge. 

We did this to work together as a team, communicate and problem solve as a class. It also helped us build healthy competition. 

We found it challenging to think of a plan- this was so new to us! 

We all had allocated jobs so nobody missed out in contributing

We did a lot of trial and error tests

It was so hard to keep it straight and stable! 

We thought it would be easy but it was actually really hard!

Native vs. Introduced Birds In New Zealand

My Reflection:
In this task we had to put the birds in the correct places. They were native, endemic and introduced. I found this tricky because it was hard to find out which bird belonged in each space as I did not not know a lot about these birds.
My next steps are to find out more about New Zealand Birds this term in Inquiry

Information Report On A Kakapo

My Reflection:

In this task we had to research facts about the New Zealand Kakapo and create an information report on the bird.
I found writing this easy as I used the plan Miss Wyeth gave us and then I wrote my paragraphs with the information I found. I really enjoyed learning about the Kakapo, they are so cute !
