The Dinosaur World

The Dinosaur World

Tamariki in our Totara class have been learning and investigating the world of dinosaurs this month.  

There have been many opportunities for them to explore creatively while sharing and consolidating what they know about dinosaurs.  This type of learning comes under the curriculum area for science and nature where tamariki are able to develop a perception of themselves as 'explorers'.  They can become confident competent learners who ask questions and make discoveries. 

At Beststart Riverbend we encourage our tamariki to be actively investigate topics of interest to support them to develop and generate working theories, where they can make sense of the natural world and become critical thinkers.
