Fantastic Field Trip!
Yesterday we went on a field trip to the Canterbury Museum to see the Arctic Voices exhibit. The exhibit was about all the animals in the arctic and how they adapt to life in such a cold country. A museum educator gave us a worksheet where we had to pick an animal and write information about how they were able to survive in cold temperatures. I chose a polar bear. On the other side we had to create a new species and how they would adapt to living in the arctic. My animal was called a polar bird. It had fur all over it's body to keep it warm and to flippers to make it swim really fast,it also has wings to fly. Then we had lunch at the botanical gardens and for playtime we got to climb trees. After lunch we had to go around the museum and find hidden things. It was very hard. I want to learn more about global warming. Afterwards I felt very tired because we had a full day. What do you know about the Arctic?

Hi Kate,
ReplyDeleteWhat a fantastic blog post about your museum visit. Your polar bird sounds really cool, did you draw a picture of it? I know that climate change/global warming is having a big effect on the amount of ice in the Arctic and that animals like the polar bear are running out of habitat. What interests you about global warming?
mostly its the arctic but the pacific garbage patch is interesting. did you know that there is 1.8 trillon pecies of waste in there?!
DeleteKate... you have used some wonderful sentences to describe your trip to the Museum. The extensive reading you do is evident in your writing. Dad and I are both very proud of the effort you have put into this blog post.
