Godwit Multimodal: Group D.

Today for reading group D followed up on Godwits using Mrs Anderson's multi modal site. We had to independently read the Godwit text and ask questions in our groups. First we used our prior knowledge and recorded it on our DLO. Some types of transport were the same as 100 years ago like Cars, Planes, Boats and more. We had so much fun and we were all included in the group and could all contribute questions and answers.

Godwit Migration Storyboard.

Made with Storyboard That
 For our godwit inquiry us year 8's made this storyboard about the godwit migration. My storyboard is a quick story about the godwits and they migrate from Tahuna Torea in New Zealand all the way to Alaska. It normally takes 8 or more days to fly and regather fuel for the long trip upon the way.

Godwit Popplet.

For inquiry we are focusing on Bar Tailed Godwits. Reon, Thomas and I have created this Popplet about their diets, appearance and the predators that hunt for them.  We did this activity so we could have a better understanding of what the godwit is and what they eat, who their predator's they are hunted by. I had lots of fun and I really enjoy researching for this topic.
