Inquiry Topic

In Room 1 we are learning about climate change.  We are learning about what makes the Earth healthy and what makes the Earth sick.  Knowing this is important because the Earth is the planet that we live on.
The things that make our planet healthy include;
Plants
Trees
Vegetables
Our Eco System
Composting
Recycling
Oxygen

The things that that make the Earth sick include;
Rubbish waste
Carbon Dioxide
Toxic Waste
Plastic bags
Plastic bottles
Plastic spoons, knives and forks

In science we are learning that the things that make the Earth sick are contributing to Climate Change and in Social Studies we are learning how Climate Change is affecting people who live on low lying islands in the Pacific.
