Structures

Recently we have been looking at structures and the different types of materials used. Over the past week we looked a range of different houses from around the world.
Firstly we took note of the belongings each family had outside of their homes and then looked at the houses. In our collaborative groups we were given a picture of a house and then worked together to fill in the PMI (plus, minus, interesting) chart.
We learnt a lot about why certain materials were used in certain areas of the world and compared some of those houses to what we have in NZ.

Once we finished working in our collaborative groups, we joined up with another group to share our findings and teach the other group about what we had learnt.

It was so awesome to see everyone participating, sharing their knowledge of their picture and taking turns!
