Adventure 2: River Rescue
This adventure began with a letter from famed documentary maker David Attenborough asking for our help.

We then looked at the physical features of a river.
After matching key vocabulary to their meaning, we used natural resources from outside to create a rivers journey, labeling it with key features.
We used this to help us write a chronological report on the journey of a river.
We then moved on to looking at the human used of rivers.
We thought about whether these uses were positive or negative for the river. We created a poster to highlight these uses.
Next we looked at how rivers could be used to generate clean energy.
We even had a go at making and testing our own waterwheels.
Next we had a look at how pollution was causing animals allover the world to become endangered and even go extinct!
Taking inspiration from David Attenborough, we filmed mini episodes to educate people on these animals.
