Evolution Verterbrates

In Room 6 we have been learning to classify animals scientists classify animals plants into groups  in order to easily identify sort and name them.you can classify animals into two main groups invertebrates or vertebrates .All vertebrates have a covering of skin that protects them skeleton inside there body muscles that help them move blood through the tubes lungs or gills to  breathe

• 90% of all animals are inverterbrates          
• Tend to be small because they do not have a backbone.
• Many live in ocean because in the water helps support there wheight
• Some have hard coverings or shell on the outside for their bodies for protection -insects ,spiders,crabs ,snails,clams                                                                                                                                                    

Science Roadshow

Last week on Thursday the year 5 and 6 students of Good Shepherd School went to Edendale Primary School to experience the Science Roadshow! We learnt so much about ice and fire, the human body and other things that are related to science. We enjoyed watching the hosts do fascinating experiments like dropping an 8 ball into the metal stick with a hoop attached to it, before they dipped it into the liquid nitrogen the ball could thread through the hoop, but after they dipped the stick into the liquid nitrogen the ball couldn’t fit!

We had a lot of fun, and recommend that everyone goes to the Science.

ce Roadshow if they get a chance.
