Team Temata's research project

Today we started our day with balderdash and then we split into three groups and made maps, snow flake and plaster of paris glaciers. we then spilt into our normal skiing groups and brainstormed about what we were going to research, how we were going to do it and what exactly we needed to find out. Team Temata's group decided to research the question of where snow is deepest; the meadow, the aspens or the conifers. We snow shoed to lower meadow and teams went into the different areas and dug snow pits, took snow measurements and measured the temperature of the trees in the different areas. We went back to the classroom and put together our powerpoint project, and Brian and the group spoke about family guy. After going over working on out powerpoint for about 3 hours, we went back to our cabins. Tonight each group is going to present their findings to the other groups.
