As part of our Science we learnt lots of new facts about Mammals. We wanted to find out more information about what kind of mammals lived around our school so we decided to design our own mammal tunnel. We set to work choosing the right materials for the tunnel itself (poster board seemed to be the best option), we decided to use dog food to entice the mammals into our tunnel. Some white sheets of paper and some paint allowed us to get some footprints of the mammals who entered. We used the footprints to decide what type of mammal it was by looking up different mammal footprints and matching it to the ones on our sheet. Take a look at us in action!
