For steam in these past weeks, we have been learning all about famous kiwis who made big achievements. My group had 5 members, me, Ayansh ,Tanveer , ,Raihaan and Kavish. We did sir Edmund Hillary, while others did Ernest Rutherford or Jean batten.
In groups of 4 or 5 ,we chose a famous kiwi to learn about. We had 3 options , which were Edmund Hillary, first man to climb Mount Everest, Ernest Rutherford , first person to split the atom and Jean batten, the record breaking pilot to fly around the world!
In my group, we all worked together to research facts like when they were born, their records and when they passed away. All 5 of us put our research together to turn it all into a giant paper timeline on a big sheet of paper. This was like making a biography about them!
We took all the info from our big timeline and made it into cool timelines on our own on CANVA. We added major info and colour to make them rock!
We learned:
How to work as a team 👬
How to research major facts 🔍
How to use digital platforms 👨🏽💻
It was fun to learn about these brave and record breaking kiwis. If they were still alive, they’d be really proud of our timelines
⭐️ “ I didn’t know that Hillary was married twice ! “
⭐️” We put Hillary climbing Everest in 1953 – that was a cool part! “
We can’t wait to do more STEAM and share it with you!
