Room 108's Birds Study Science Centre - Transforming our Drama Centre
The students of Room 108 have created their very own Birds Student Science Centre, where they can go and explore, create and research birds. We have writing down what we have learned and even created a Venn Diagram comparing birds and the boys and girls of Room 108.



Creating Birds

As part of our inquiry, the students of Room 108 made birds in their nests as an activity with Ms. Saplala. They each had used various materials and created birds of their choices and used their words to describe how and what they made. Some students chose blue jays, others cardinals, robins and parrots! Check out their work!

We also incorporated Capacity (Math) and had the students place their birds into their nests and estimate how many they can fit in their nest. 

Coming up....
Using texture art to create our own birds with Plasticine.

 The students researched various birds using technology and books and created the birds they were researching.                      

Shahira made an owl based on one of the stories we read in class. Inaki made a hummingbird and placed the hummingbird on a flower as thats where they get their food.
