Learning Intention
What did you learn today?
We visited the constructed wetland at Telus Spark. 

How did you show what you learned?
Each group asked a different question, chose the appropriate tools, gathered samples and conducted their experiment to answer their question. 
One Group collected various water samples and tested the water quality. 
One Group looked at various insects under the microscope.

What do you need to learn next?
We want to conduct similar experiments at our constructed Wetland in the next few weeks. 
We also want show our understanding of Wetlands through art.... what animal, insect or plant will you add to our mural?
