__Minibeasts__
This term Room 1 are learning all about Mini Beasts - our inquiry topic is "Minibeasts - can we live without them?" We will be updating this wikipage daily with our ideas and learnings - keep an eye on it! We tried to find information about minibeasts and we found it hard so as a class we decided we knew enough about wikispaces so that we could make one about minibeasts. We want our wiki to be able to be used by ANYONE to learn more about minibeasts. This will be a resource for schools around the world when we have finished!!!!! Be careful with what you update as anyone can change things - Everything is recorded though so I can track down anything that is changed! I would love to see this page updated with your learnings and your photos - remember to put your name on here. Enjoy this cool opportunity - as you decided you wanted to make a documentary we will use your learning in this news project to put towards our final documentary in term 4.
