Our Inquiry Journey

This is our KWL Chart based on the key concepts.

We formed our lines of inquiry and selected the key concepts using the KWL Chart.

Concept Map of The Types of Poverty.

In this task we used the Concept map to describe the different types of Poverty.

Joint definition of Poverty.

In this task we came up with our individual definitions of Poverty and then combined them to come up with one joint definition.

After understanding there are six types of Poverty, we chose which type we would like to research and present on.

Our Second Line of Inquiry: Causes and Effects of Poverty

Making

connections

After researching and presenting our chosen types of Poverty we made the connection to understand the interrelation of the concepts.

In the task below, we created generalizations to show our understanding of the causes and effects of Poverty.

Our Third Line of Inquiry: Poverty in relation to Covid-19

In the task below, we used the KWL Chart to gather our prior knowledge and then researched and presented our findings about how Covid-19 relates with Poverty

Coggle Activity

In this activity we shared our thoughts on how Covid-19 affects the various types of Poverty.

The Connection between Types of Poverty

After investigating and comparing each other's chosen type of Poverty, we found a pattern of how they all connect to each other based on their common problems.

Making connections: Current Events

Tough Choices

Jacob Riis

The second wave of covid in rural poverty

For the three articles above, our task was to write our reflections on how the people involved experienced Poverty and the cause of their poor situations. We also added the skills we used to complete the task.

Making connections: Transdisciplinary themes of PYP

Making connections: SDGs and Poverty

Spider Web Activity

In this task, we created a spider web by cross-connecticross-connecting the SDGs to Poverty. We realised in the end that achieving the SDGs will greatly reduce poverty at most of the goals are related to Poverty.
