'Camp Creativity' Guided Inquiry!
We have made maps designing our own camp, inspired by our time at Portsea Camp. We could include our own activities like archery, horse riding and giant swings. We also need to include important building like a place to sleep, toilets and somewhere to eat. We collected data on what activities were popular to include in our camp.
This week we also designed a menu for our camp and an itinerary outlining a typical day at our camp. This is part of our Information text investigation.
We cannot wait to share all about our camps on Seesaw later this term.
Have a great week!
