Listening Walk
On our excursion we explored the bush with our senses. In the rainforest we sat and listened to the sounds during our magic spot. The sounds were both natural and man-made.
In pairs, students walk around the school/ or sit in an area and listen and write down all the things they hear.
Try doing this at other places or times to compare.
How did this compare to what we heard in the rainforest on our excursion?
You can revisit our beautiful rainforest and listen to the sounds on a virtual visit at our Lessons in Nature website
