Mātauranga Pūtaiao- Science

 All throughout this term we have been learning about Pūtaiao. This week we have been very lucky to have some guest speakers share with us their mātauranga pūtaiao (scientific skills and knowledge) with us.

On Rāhina, Stuart and Becky spoke to us about Forensic science. We learnt about DNA and how to read evidence such as shoeprints and tyre tread marks.

             

Today, Sally shared her expertise with us about being a Naval scientist. Some of us were lucky enough to try on the survival gear, that she has to wear while aboard the ship. Sally also told us about her visit to the Antarctic, her favourite trip.

Ngā mihi nui to Stuart,  Becky and Sally for sharing your mātauranga (knowledge) with us.

  1. Kia ora Ruma rua tekau ma rua, thank you for sharing your pūtaiao learning with us!
    To think like a scientist you must: ask questions, make detailed observations, develop a hypothesis, find answers using tests, and question your answers. Enjoy your pūtaiao learning!
