Term 4 Inquiry - Technology


My animal is the Brown Kiwi.

What does my animal need in its enclosure?
Twigs, Bark, a little bit of hay, a big log,
Some alive grass, some rocks.

What features did I add just for my animal and how are they helpful?
Grass so my animal can hide, a log so the kiwi can look for danger.

Did I make any changes and why did I decide to do that?

I had to change the log in a different way so the kiwi can look around and I took out some rocks.
