Classroom Project As part of our STEM, Science, HASS and Technology and Enterprise Integrated Program, the students planned and created a landscape diorama. Each student: Step 1 . Selected a landscape to make (i.e. farm, park, city, bush etc) Step 2 . Brainstormed a list of natural and built features to include in their landscape (Students had to use three natural and three built features in their diorama). Step 3 . Decided on what colours they needed to paint their box, what things they needed to make to place into the box and what materials they needed to make their features. Step 4 . Created their landscape diorama. Step 5. Reflected on how similar their landscape diorama was to their plan. Congratulations to all the students on their wonderful projects! I am very proud of you all ☺ Kind regards Miss Ryan
