    7W1 Science Assessment 1: NZ animal adaptations Assignment

    Opened: Tuesday, 28 May 2024, 12:00 AM

    Due: Thursday, 11 July 2024, 3:00 PM

    For our Term 2 context ‘Tread lightly - Takahia Mana’, Year 7 students in Wai Whanau have been exploring our Native NZ environment, and looking at how humans can impact our environment. 

    
    

    In this assessment, you are going to create an infographic poster, to present information about this topic. 

    
    

    You will have two weeks of class time in Science and Global studies to complete your infographic.
