On Friday we started finding out all the googleable stuff about different things in Antarctica. Mrs Jones put us in groups according to the things we were interested in from both the Mystery Box activity and the Brainstorming activity. We used the computers and the iPads to google everything we could about our area and took notes. We are learning to use bullet points to note down phrases rather than writing out everything we read. We are also learning to choose websites that have the information that we are looking for rather than ones that are no help to us. Our googleable topics are: Ice, Temperature, Penguins, Mt Erebus disaster, Ozone layer, Other Antarctic animals, Ice Axes. Here we are in action:
