Year 5/6 Inquiry

year 5&6 inquiry

The Year 5/6 classes are exploring the concepts of diversity, identity, change and responsibility through their inquiry learning this term. They are think about and asking the big questions: How are we diverse? What are our personal and social responsibilities? Students have started tuning in and discovering diversity is a concept that applies to them as individuals, in group settings and broader communities. They are exploring the elements that make us diverse and developing cross cultural understandings.  Students are developing open ended questions, examining of different information sources, building their note-taking skills and reflecting on their learning along the way. Students will have the opportunity to visit Parliament House to further provoke thinking around their personal and social responsibilities as citizens of the Australian community.

Year 2 Brains!

year two brains!

Year 2s have been inspired by the story The Wizard of Oz and the Scarecrow’s problem
with having a head full a straw.  The
song “If I only had a brain” from the movie The Wizard of Oz has sparked us to
have many wonderings about Our Brains. 
Some of our wonderings are: what does the brain do? Are headaches
growing pains in the brain? How do we remember things? What does the brain look
like and feel like? How did our brain get there? Why can’t we remember being a
baby?  We are looking forward to finding
out the answers to our wonderings

In J1 we have been discussing the rights of children. We have studied the UN convention of the Rights of the Child to help with our investigations and how they apply to our own classroom problems. 

In H1 and H2 we have been discussing how we are all diverse.  We found out that we originated from lots of different countries, making us very multicultural. 

In D block we have been discussing diversity and how our genetics make us different.
