Mulching in Term 3

During Term 3 Room 13 has been involved in mulching the native tree plantings on our back field.

We have also learnt about writing explanations - so after we had researched what mulching is and its benefits students wrote their own explanations. These will be added to the photos below.

Pascal's Triangle

This is a photo of Pascal's triangle. Pascal's triangle is a continuous triangle of numbers. It can help you at finding how many combinations are possible. We enjoyed have working with Pascal's amazing triangle.  Can you see how he constructed his triangle?                                                                                                                                MA and HH.  


Tree Planting

We walked out the Elm Park school from the back blue gate. We carried the heavy plants to the
back of the schools planting site. Our amazing instructor Mr Field told us how to use a big spade. We
found some big and small plants and planted them in the rich black soil. We first dug a hole big enough for the plants. The soil was as soft as a lama.  The soil was as black as the pitch black night sky.
