Learning Intentions for Science
  • We are learning to understand that all living creatures have a life cycle.

  • We are learning that living creatures have bodies that are designed to help them to live and survive.  

  • We are learning that all living things are designed to live in a particular environment.

  • We are learning to understand how food webs work.

  • We are learning that in an ecosystem all living things and their environment are interconnected.

  • We are learning to understand about the Rocky Shore and the impact, both positive and negative, we can have on this environment.
Literacy

As part of our rocky shore unit we will also use our literacy skills to read and learn about the rocky shore and to write an information report on a rocky shore creature.

Writing
We are learning to write an information report about an animal.
We are learning to use our writing skills across the curriculum.

  1. Kia ora Wairini and Dakota

    You have both done a great job on your information report. It was great to see that you followed the correct structure and organised your information into paragraphs. I also liked seeing you use some sophisticated language. Can I double check that you wrote it all into your own words? You had some really good information and I liked the visual you used as they supported your information. Next time it would be good to see you explain a bit more about how their bodies are suited to live in the environments they live in. I really liked that you had a diagram of their life cycle. Ka pai.

    1. I really enjoyed learning about Karoro. Yes, we definitely wrote it in our own words apart from words we didn't know how to spell. Thank you, Dakota

  2. This was really interesting to read about Dakota and Wairini. You used great pictures to accompany your paragraphs. It would be interesting to know how long they can fly for, how long they live etc. Did you see any on your rocky seashore visit? Next time be careful what background you choose-it was a bit difficult to read some of the paragraphs with the line going through it. Well done girls. (Phaedra)
