IMAGINE & EXPLORE
Year 4's it is now time to become an EXPLORER, read this task carefully as you will need to know your instructions as we head to Sydney Harbour (Port Jackson) for an excursion.
Your mission is to document and observe the world around you as if you've never seen it before. Take notes. Collect things you find on your travels. Document your findings. Notice patterns. Focus on one thing at a time & record what you are drawn to. Make drawings of what you see, but most of all have FUN!
From what we have learnt about the first fleet convicts, the environment before & after and the different ships use this information to form your thinking for this mission.
Before we all go on our adventure there are three things:
1. Make a short list of what you expect to see
2. Think about what we have learnt about the first fleet convicts, the environment before & after and use this information to form your thinking for this mission.
3. Ask yourselves:
What interests you in your environment today?
What would be different about todays environment to what it would have been like?
What do you think things would be like if the first fleet didn't arrive?
What would be one of the first things you would notice when you stepped off the boat?
4. Have fun!
