Welcome to this Room 11 blog. Our learning philosophy is to LEARN, CREATE an artifact that shows our learning, and then SHARE it in creative ways, including posting it here on this blog.The purpose of this blog is for students to become accustomed to sharing their learning, recieving feedback, and preparing them for having their very own blog.While students will make every effort to have work corrected and error free it is in fact authentic student work, showing where students are at, and so there are likely to be some mistakes. The aim is to note progress and improvement, and we expect to see this over time.

there are 15 different colour mutations including grey, pied, pearled, cinnamon, whitefaced, lutino, albino and yellowcheek.



Fact’s

The cockatiels were not so popular in the 1770 they got popular when there was a gold rush in the 1900’s. The cockatiel was the most wild kept parrot except the parakeet or budgie. The cockatiels diet is cooked rice, corn, pasta and bean mixture.
