We have been working really hard in class this term on our inquiries. Our theme for the term was Happy Habitats and we had to research an area around this. We have inquiries around ecosystems, food webs, food chains, plants, animal adaptations, animal diseases and invertebrates. Come into Room 5 and check out our wall models or take a look at our PowerPoint presentations-they rock!
