National Science Week

Week 5 of the term is National Science Week and as such Mano is celebrating it by suggesting possible at home activities for students. 

 

The week’s theme is Species Survival - More than just sustainability. 

 

Possible activities could be;

  •  To complete a backyard biodiversity count where they investigate the different species of insects, birds, plants and anything else there may be and count how many of each. 
  • Brainstorm, design and create a habitat for a living thing in their backyard. 
  • Research the food for a living thing in their backyard and ensure there is a steady supply of the food to encourage native biodiversity.
