Welcome to Year 4!
Our lines of inquiry are:
The different ocean (marine) ecosystems (Form)
How oceans are at risk (Causation)
How we can protect the oceans (Responsibility)
For our provocation, we explored what we knew about the oceans, what risks the oceans and we bgan to think about how children can begin to save our oceans.
Our work included partner and group collaboration, an opportunity to carry out some research and to develop our speaking and listening skills when feeding back to the class our thoughts.
We will be looking at the Line of Inquiry:
An inquiry into how we can protect our oceans (responsibility). We began our learning this module by looking at current technology that is being used to help clean our oceans.
We explored how hard it could be to pick up a plastic bottle using different things that could be found in our kitchens.
We watched to see how easily our could friends could pick up the bottles. We explored if it was easier with one item or multiple items such and chopsticks.
