Biology - Classification!
Students have been exploring concepts relating to the classification of animals. They have run tests on playdough creatures with and without a backbone to see whether an invertebrate is stronger than a vertebrate. They have been using a dichotomous key to classify animals and have been sketching arthropods to investigate their features.
Vertebrate or Invertebrate - which is stronger?
| Beneath Our Feet - the Earth Sciences
Over the term, students have explored concepts relating to the Earth Sciences, including erosion caused by natural and human processes, flooding and coastal degradation, the positives and negatives of mining, the Earth's core and rocks and minerals.
