1. Students from the ENBE Group X Unit 2 visited the River Stone Eco Resort as part of a class project to experience and represent nature. 2. The project involved using the five senses to observe the environment, collecting samples, and creating an infographic poster and documentary video to reflect what was learned. 3. Specific tasks included experiencing nature with senses, sketching the site layout, noting plants and animals, and presenting findings in a PowerPoint report.

3. Introduction
The idea of this project is for us to experience nature. The site visit
allow us to be part of nature to observe and collect information. We
are asked to collect the 5 senses during the site visit to enhance our
feeling into the nature. We will have to represent our findings and
information as an Infographic Poster and our experience through a
documentary video.

14. The Animal
This is the first animal I found at our site.
Looks like a lizard. I decided to use
this as one of my investigation and
research topic.
The draft note recorded the image of the
animal, and 5 sense. By observing the
animal, I recorded down how it looks
like and the obvious characteristic, to
make sure that I could find out the
name of species afterwards.

and the obvious characteristic, to make
sure that I could find out the name of
