Rationale
|
| |
|
 |
|
This project involved using a library and the Internet to locate and research an issue in Australia involving Endangered Species.
Students had to consider possible plans of action to preserve the species after examining the reasons why the plant/animal is endangered.
We invited our partner schools overseas to investigate the same issue in their country to add interest to the project.
