Over this term in Room 5 we have been learning about Antarctica and Global Warming. We have been watching the TVNZ “Ice” series to learn about Antarctica, the Penguins environment and global warming. The penguins we are learning about are Chinstrap,Gentoo,Adelie and Emperor. We wrote down the information we learnt about the penguins using a mind map. We also had a students dad come in and talk to us about Antarctica because he has been there. He told us that it was Scott Bases 50th anniversary. They played rugby on the ice against America and we won for the 50th time.
Now here are some of our wonderings and answers.
