Learning about Energy in Piwakawaka




Our focus for this year is ENERGY! We have made mind maps of all the different types of energy we know about. In term 1, before Covid we took part in a Food for Thought programme with Jess from Foodstuffs. She taught us about the energy in food.we have learnt so much more since then. We made our mind maps in groups, harnessing the energy of the group through co operation. First we brainstormed the ideas on ti a slide and found images in Explore. We tried to group our ideas of similar types of energy then find the best images to represent that idea. We found we needed to compromise and share our ideas until we all agreed. Sometimes that is not always easy. Have you ever had to collaborate on a mind map?
