Students from Clare, Millaroo and Airville State Schools combined for a day of robotics and inquiry learning with the team from Paluma Environmental Education Centre during the last week of the school term.
The students caught insects and used apps on iPads to identify what they had caught. It was surprising to see the variety of insects that were found on the school grounds.
The students also found evidence of photo synthesisers, carnivores, omnivores and herbivores in the school grounds and discussed the important role that the sun plays for all forms of life.
After lunch the students were split into two groups with Prep – Year 2 making a colour coded map for a robot to follow while the older students practised their coding skills to make their robots sense objects around them and move about the classroom without crashing into anything.
The students demonstrated excellent teamwork, problem solving and inquiry learning skills and had a great day learning with their mates from other schools.
