In Class 2.1 the students recently transformed into palaeontologists and conservationists. They researched on the internet the roles of both careers and discovered what tasks need to be achieved to fulfil the roles. They had opportunities to excavate and search for dinosaur bones under the exploration tent, just outside the class room. Once the bones were carefully recovered, they were able to reassemble the dinosaurs.
The students were using their collaboration skills to work in teams. They practiced mathematical concepts, whilst engaging in the reassembling of the dinosaurs and developing their research skills - all while inquiring further into the subject of extinct and endangered animals.
