ZERO EXPLORES

Figure 1 (graphics1.jpg)

  • Design a necklace for Zero that he can show his people on the planet. Use beads, seeds and other interesting articles.

My design:

  • What are you going to use to make the necklace?

Zero is excited about our beautiful green country. He wants to take some of our plants to his planet. Do you think the plants will grow there?

Discuss in your groups:

  • Is there water on Mars?
  • Do you think the sun shines on Mars?
  • Will somebody on the planet know how to look after the plants?
  • Do plants need water?

Group work: plan an experiment.

Remember:

  • You must use two plants so that you can compare them.
  • You must treat them exactly the same except for what you are testing.
  • You must record what you notice.
  • Draw a picture of what you are going to do:
  • What do you think will happen?

My observations

  • What did happen?
  • Would you like to pay a visit to Zero?
  • Draw a picture of Zero and his vehicle.

Lenses

A lens is a custom view of the content in the repository. You can think of it as a fancy kind of list that will let you see content through the eyes of organizations and people you trust.

What is in a lens?

Lens makers point to materials (modules and collections), creating a guide that includes their own comments and descriptive tags about the content.

Who can create a lens?

Any individual member, a community, or a respected organization.

What are tags? tag icon

Tags are descriptors added by lens makers to help label content, attaching a vocabulary that is meaningful in the context of the lens.
