Thursday 16th is wild foods lunch time BBQ. Thanks so much for the generous offers of game. We will be selling venison wraps for $4:00 and sample plates with a selection of other wild game.

Homework this week is to work on a reading activity for our web site.

  1. Select a topic from our wetlands study and write an information text similar to our "Birds" reading activities. It should have a simple introduction and 4 or 5 paragraphs. Each paragraph should have a clear topic such as;features, habitat, food, life cycle and threats.
  2. Write some activities for a reader to demonstrate their understanding of the text such as the Blooms  "Birds" questions and tasks. This link may help. https://www.flsouthern.edu/tlc/pdf/BloomsTaxonomy.pdf
  3. Use some of the links on the blog to find your information. Remember we only want a draft copy on refill paper. Sketch any pictures you want.
Next week we hope to go and see Cleardale's wetland and spawning salmon on 22/5. If we get enough transport.
