Mission to Mars

Sharyn Varcoe —

Students in many year 10 Science classes have been busy this term problem solving on Mars, or at least investigating and modelling possible solutions to problems we may face when we eventually get to Mars. 

Students have had the chance to develop both their investigative and collaborative skills while working on their project. 

With an emphasis on group work, they have enjoyed the flexibility of this project culminating with a final build of their ideal Mars habitat based on evidence they previously gathered.
