On Friday afternoon, 9T learnt about how Orangutans communicate with one another. They have their own form of sign language to show each other what they want and how they feel. Orangutans are so intelligent they can even learn human sign language!
Our task was to create our own version of Orangutan sign language, in case we ever get the opportunity to encounter one in the wild. Below are some of the signs we came up with.
Let us know what you think, will Orangutans like our efforts?

Orangutan Postcards
These are postcards made by 9T that explain some threats to the survival of Orangutans in Borneo and Sumatra. We have been studying the rainforest, and as a side note have spent a week learning about Orangutans, and how their population has been faced with extinction. The postcards have a picture on the front that shows some aspect of threat to the Orangutans, while the letter on the back describes this in words.9t postcards
Let us know what you think, and your opinion on the matter!
