STEM with the Flying Foxes by Ava, Isabelle, Lara and ReganThe Flying Foxes have recently been doing an animal documentary. We got to use the green screen and finished the documentary this week. When you use the green screen for filming, you can make different backgrounds and add other things.
We worked together in 6 teams (koala, hammerhead shark, great white shark, red panda, wolf and elephant) and used smart boards to present our documentaries to the whole class on Tuesday.
Every Tuesday afternoon, Mrs Creamer takes our class for STEM. Recently we have learning about plants and animals. We have been using a branch key for the animal classification. It has yes and no questions to find what sort of animal or insect it is.
Sometimes we go outside into the sunshine garden. This Tuesday we went behind C block to look for insects in the leaf litter. Afterwards, we moved some soil and leaf litter to the sunshine garden because it is very good for the plants.
Soil and toil in the Sunshine GardenWe put our Flying Fox students to work in the Sunshine Garden on Tuesday afternoon!
