Inquiry Materials! 📗& 💻

You will need a journal to record your ideas and thinking throughout this inquiry. Your journal is unique opportunity to record your own thoughts and feelings during the historical global pandemic we are all experiencing together.

Activities and information presented within the above lines of inquiry will also be assigned through the Monarch Academy School-wide Google Classroom . Within the above pages, when you see a computer screen icon ( 💻) it will link directly to the Google Classroom assignment. Be warned that the classroom links can only be accessed through MAA Student Google accounts. However, the inquiry crafted here can be followed outside of Google Classroom using your inquiry journal . Look out for the journal icon ( 📗) for opportunities to write in your journal.

We look forward to having as many families participate as possible! Student work submitted in Google Classroom may be shared on this website and will shape our final project.

The MAA school-wide inquiry was developed using the IB-PYP curriculum framework we use for learning at our school. The goal is to create learning that is relevant and engaging that will inspire out students to act. For more information on our school's IB-PYP candidacy and IB resources, click here.
