Week 10 Term1 2008

This week we wandered around our school grounds to see if we had any plants or flowers that would attract butterflies into our school grounds. While we were very happy to find a hibiscus plant, we found that our school grounds had the most beautiful trees BUT very few flowers

Later we discussed what we think we should do about it. Grace thought we should plant some seeds and grow some flowers. Charlotte thought we should buy some plants from the garden centre and plant them in a pot. Tony thought we should plant some more hibiscus plants. Harrison shared that to grow flowers or plants we need sun, and rain Grace added and soil. Next week we are going to take this investigation further and find out what and who we have to contact to undertake planting in our school grounds.



Also this week class members brought in some interesting things to share – Kaiyu brought in wetas he'd found in his parden, another class member brought in a leaf eaten by something. She was sure a caterpillar had been munching the leaf but wasn’t able to find it anywhere.
