We have been learning about the importance of having a clean water supply and this afternoon investigated some innovative ways water can be filtered to eliminate contaminants, viruses and bacteria.  We decided to experiment with different materials to see which ones could filter water best.  We tried different sizes of sand, stones, charcoal and paper.  We even pooled all of our resources to build a super filter!  We discussed some of the Metaskills we would be using this afternoon and decided to focus on feelings.  We were careful to recognise and respect other people’s feelings and emotions.  We showed kindness and empathy and noticed how our actions impacted others in our group.
