For the past several weeks in Te Ngahere we have been learning about the Nghahere (forest) and its ecosystem. After learning about consumers, producers and decomposers, we built our own ecosystem with examples of mutualism and what I have explained above. We built them on Minecraft Education Edition. Our Minecraft world shows decomposers such as worms and mushrooms breaking down organic matter, producers such as trees and plants photosynthesising. It also shows consumers/animals in glass cages so they can be viewed without them escaping. The mutualism that is shown is a Tui and a tree. The Tui gains food and a home from the tree, and the tree gains the Tui’s seed dispersing ability to grow more trees in a vast area distribution. Thinking back I think our progress each day that was made on the world was good. The one thing that could be better was to get a better recording than the one we ended up with. I hope you will enjoy our video.
