Next term, our inquiry focus will be science.
Over the holidays I have asked the children to think or a focus for a 'Passion Project'.
This will involve the children thinking of a 'fat' question to ask and then research independently around this question.
They will need to think about how they will research it, what aspects to look at, how they will answer the question and how they will present it.
Ideas for presentation include:
Power point presentation
Poster
Prezzi
Padlet
Word document
Powtoon
Any other relevant presentation apps that are appropriate - the list is endless.
Please have a chat with your children about what they would love to research!!
Examples include:
What can I find out about the planets in our solar system?
Why is the sky blue?
How do plants grow?
What are 5 kinds of flowers and how are they so different?
What happens when you mix vinegar with baking soda? Why?
Anything that you WONDER about!!!
Comment any ideas that may be researched as a record for next term.
