Maraia - Current Events Term 2 - Eusocial Plants

Eusocial Plants

WALT : Analyse media with an open but critical eye to inform our own opinions

Today in class we did our Current Events activity and for this Current Events Activity is about Eusocial Plants. We had to read the whole article then answer the recall questions and do our glossary. After we do 
all that that we came move onto the activities.  For the activity that page will give us answers and we have to find the answers in the article. Like if the page says "I am the word scientists use to describe animals that live in colonies" then we have to look and find the answer in the article and the answer was Eusocial. 
Eusocial means  a species of animals or insects.
