Lesson 3
KWL
Learning Intention
We are learning to use a KWL chart to show prior knowledge and learning directions
Inquiry Questions
What do you already know about the Earth's resources?
Outcomes
Science: ST1-10ES-S
KWL - What do I know, what do I wonder and what did I learn?
Invite the students to complete the first two columns of a KWL. This activity will provide the students with the opportunity to brainstorm what they know about the content and key inquiry question. It will provide a chance to identify incorrect preconceptions and also provide an assessment opportunity after the completion of the ‘Learn’ column after the excursion.
Some prompting questions could be:
What resources does the Earth provide us with?
What resources have you used today? Are they natural or made by humans?
Do animals also need resources from the Earth?
What Earth's resources might we find on our excursion to a National Park?
What resources might the GuriNgai people have used when they lived on Country a long time ago?
Can resources change over time?
