RASHARKIN PRIMARY PLANTS TREES IN COSTA RICAN RAINFOREST

During their current topic of 'Rainforests', P6 and P7 learned all about the effects of deforestation.  They wrote persuasive arguments against deforestation and we are delighted to say their arguments have been published on the website www.kidssavingtherainforest.org

The website also presented them with a certificate to recognise money they donated to plant trees in a rainforest in Costa Rica.

They also got to use their numeracy skills during this topic.  Lots of problem solving and measuring skills were needed in order to estimate and measure how long the longest snake in the world is or how fast a sloth moves.  They even attempted to move as slow as a sloth by trying to move 3 metres in 1 minute.  Watch the video to see how they got on.
