Year 4/5 have been busy producing their inquiry projects and they are fantastic. Children have created information reports, plaster models, PowerPoints, class presentations, documentaries, and interviews. Students have all demonstrated their understanding of animal adaptations and threats to their habitats. All the teachers have been especially impressed by the dioramas made with the support of families at home. They are on display in our classroom and in the front office if you would like to have a look.

In maths we have been looking at the language in math word problems and knowing which operation to use to solve them. Students have been working together to document their working out and share it with the class. We have also been building our money math skills with our buddy class. In English we have been finishing off our information reports about endangered animals and environments.

We had an excellent time at the Woodbridge Marine Discovery Centre where we got to feed the animals, get up close to creatures in the touch tanks, investigate bioluminescence, drive underwater drones and look creature adaptations.
