Room 7 Bug Houses

Room 7 Bug Houses...

We have been learning about New Zealand garden wildlife.

Bryan set us the task of planning and making bug houses.

First planned our bug house, then built and collaged them.

Next we painted them bright colours to attract the insects.  We had to cut holes in our bug houses so they could get air, light and fresh air.

Finally we are going to try them out in our own gardens at home.

We need to put food, crushed flowers and leaves, soil and dirt inside because insects like these things.

photosynthesis by Jasmin

we are learning about trees and how they grow.  If there wasn't any trees everybody wouldn't be alive right now because we breath oxygen. 

Photosynthesis is when trees use sunlight, water and carbon dioxide to make sugar for themselves to eat. 
Trees breath in carbon dioxide and breath out oxygen.

Cha Cha Cheetah and the Cantankerous Jupiter

Clap, clap, clipity, clap goes Cha Cha Cheetahs bonkers shoes as he twirls into his gorgeous home because he was starving! like a hungry monkey.

Cha cha cheetah looked in his ginormous fridge. He gazed around it and he spied some bright red baked beans and he gobbled them up in one gulp then he needed to do a yuck cantankerous jupiter.... he did a big one!

Cha cha cheetah went outside to get some refreshing air! 

Thank goodness when he got out the stinky jupiter went away and everyone was happy..... and as for Cha Cha Cheetah, he never ate so much baked beans again.

My Litter Free Lunch Box By Marvin

 This is my lunchbox. There is no litter in it. It is important to not have plastic wrap because it's bad for the environment.

Litter Free Lunches

Room 7 had a litter free lunch day today.

Our aim was to pack a lunch that had zero litter and we did a pretty good job.

We want to try and reduce the amount of trash in our landfills and look after our school environment.

We learnt that it takes a very, VERY long time for plastic to break down so instead of using plastic wrap we can use containers!

Enjoy our video and song.
