= media type="custom" key="4223335" = == ====Panda's and other animals that live in forests or rain forests are struggling to survive, and soon they will be extinct because people are cutting down more trees than they can grow and not replanting new ones to replace the one that the cut down. Animals will soon have no where to live or eat so they will die. If we cut down all the trees all the oxygen will disappear and everyone living on earth will die because there will be no oxogen to survive. So no trees equals no air, no air means we will all die and so will all the animals!!!==== =Save the world for our future!!!= =Our Log:= You girls have impressed me with your organisation and attempt to present an engaging presentation to the class. Your clip was great and reflected your issue very well. It also showed that you have an understanding of the process of deforestation. Your introduction was well read, effective and just enough information, not over the audience's head! The quiz was fantastic, very interactive and got the class involved, what a great activity for a hot afternoon. Not only have you been successful in presenting your findings to the class in an engaging and interactive way, you have also shown a good understanding of your research answers and adapted the information for the class. You have an awareness of the cause and effect of greenhouse gases being emitted into the atmosphere as a result of deforestation. It would be great if you had included some actions people can take to address this issue and make sure their lifestyles and choices they make about how they use resources do not impact so much on our Earth. I look forward to seeing what you do for SO WHAT?! || code [|Website Widgets] code

 * 12/8/09 || Added points to the Knowledge Saturation page. || You girls have made a great start to your inquiry, with a lot of useful sources located. It is great to see you thinking critically about the sources you use and reflecting on your learning from each source. The below points you learnt are quite advanced. Can you explain what you mean by the 'world's market economy'? Make sure the terms you use that may be unfamiliar to your audience are explained to show an understanding of what they mean. Great collaboration so far girls. I look forward to seeing your inquiry progress
 * I learnt that the root cause of deforestation is the failure of the world’s market economy.
 * I learnt that destruction of the rainforest releases carbon dioxide through disturbing the substantial residue of carbon in the soil.
 * I learnt that The science of this human-induced carbon exchange is complex but there are consensus that deforestation contributes about 20% of global greenhouse gas emissions, more than the world's transport sector. ||
 * 19/8/09 || did the title for essential questions. || Your questions show higher order thinking skills, using Bloom Taxonomy. This means that you will need to think critically about the information you have gained from your knowledge. comprehension and analysis questions to apply it to your analysis, synthesis and evaluation answers. These answers will need to be in depth to show a strong understanding of your questions. ||
 * 27/8/09 || Wrote our hypothesizes || ||
 * 1/9/09 || researched for our questions || ||
 * 5/9/09 || set up investigate page || ||
 * 5&6/9/09 || wrote out answers || ||
 * 6&7/9/09 || typed up answers || You girls are collaborating with each other to complete each stage of your inquiry. Your notes seem well organised so far, I look forward to seeing your answers typed up. It will be interesting to see how your hypotheses compare to your researched answers! Be prepared for a presentation to the class about your inquiry next Monday :) ||
