2008 Rich Task

This year I am studying the Waitakere ranges. I am looking at ecosystems, food chains and also the history of them. I am going on camp to the Waitakere ranges so I will find out more when I go there. I am also looking at the wild life like the native bush and the animals.
If you have any information about this please feel free to post a comment.

“With Your Food Basket And My Food Basket The Guests Will Be Fed”

At school we have been looking at this statment and deciding what it ment. We decided that the food baskets could mean help so that it is changed to “with help and my help the event will work out”. This is also explaining teamwork and how some things can’t be done with one person. It is also saying that in a team you put in an equal amount of effort or else it is not known as teamwork. We have also looked at “There is no I in teamwork”, This is on my class blog http://www.room29space.edublogs.org
We decided that it meant that teamwork is “we” instead of “I” because if it was “I” then it would mean that one person was doing all the work.

Please descuss your ideas here of the statment and question others.
