Week+8

Week 8 (June 15 to June 19)

Your team should be working on their catchment management plans.

Compiling a team profile is an important learning task for students, but so is reading other team’s profiles! If you and your team can spare the time, take the opportunity to read a few. The exemplary Team profiles are now too numerous to mention one by one, but below are a selection of team profiles which particularly demonstrate the diversity of MuM09 teams’ locations and catchments. __Team profiles from high density city catchments__: Chisholm Champs, Woollahra Public School, NSW 6IH Daring Detectives, Kambala, NSW __A Team profile from a very small rural town__: Agent Jerdy, Jerdacuttup Primary School, WA __ A Team profile from a coastal area: __ YEAR 5 KANGAROOS, Narooma Public School __ A Team profile from an industrial area: __ Ajuga Green, Ajuga School, NSW __ Team profile from a rural / semi rural area: __ Pages River Rangers, Blandford Public School, NSW // 1. You may like to set a task for your students. Divide your team / class into small groups. Allocate one listed profile to each group. Have them locate and read the profile and prepare a report for the class, focussing on the similarities and differences between their own catchment and the catchment they have studied. 2. Have students compile a multiple choice quiz based on the content found in the other teams' profiles. // ** eg Which of the following teams live in a high-density city catchment? A.   YEAR 5 KANGAROOS, Narooma NSW B.   6IH Daring Detectives, Kambala, NSW C.   Agent Jerdy, Jerdacuttup, WA    D.    Pages River Rangers, Blandford, NSW
