Around Grade 3/4

 3/4Ms Inquiry Project 

In Inquiry, we have been learning about endangered animals in South America and Africa. The Werribee zoo sent us a letter asking for our help to rehome endangered animals from South America and Africa. We have to research habitats in Australia that are similar to their habitats. 

On Friday April 30th we went to the Werribee zoo. We got to see all of the animals and go on a safari bus. We did a zoo class on the African wild dogs and learnt about how they designed the zoo enclosures, we also went into a little hut and learnt about skulls. We had an amazing time at the zoo. 

In class we have been using the atlases and researching endangered animals. We have also been using them for finding a place for the endangered animals in Australia. We have been developing our research skills to find out the features, habitat and diet of our chosen endangered animal.
