This morning we visited the wooded area of our playground to investigate the biodiversity there. We listed all the living things we found, took lots of photos of them and discussed the conditions that made this a good place for them to live and grow and how theses living things interacted with each other. We also made some tree bark and leaf rubbings.
Did you know to estimate the age of a tree, count the number of rings on the stump, from the centre out?!
We can’t wait to investigate other areas of our playground to see how the biodiversity differs depending on the conditions.
We wonder what we would find if we investigated a river or pond, a beach, a mountain? 🤔
