Today Year Six looked at the variety of habitats our Tamaki Estuary offers.
We played a fun Kahoot to review what a habitat its, read posters describing estuary habitats and the animals that are adapted to live there, cut and pasted descriptors and their photos and lastly played an online create a mangrove habitat game.
What have we learnt today?
