History

We are currently studying European exploration and colonisation in Australia and throughout the world up to the early 1800s. We did some awesome drawings of the ships Christopher Columbus used to sail around the world.

We Are Scientists!

Science is a huge and amazing field, and there are many types of scientists in the world who all work with different things. A scientist might work in a laboratory, out in nature, at a special office, as a professor, as a writer or journalist, and more! Scientists use all kinds of different tools for their jobs: Computers, telescopes, microscopes, rulers, thermometers, barometers, scales, beakers and test tubes. (Don’t forget that for most scientists, one of their best tools is their brain!)

This week we have created personalized folders to put in our investigations on the life cycles of different living things.
