Reflect on how you went during your inquiry. What did you learn?
Explain how you worked toward your goals and how it helped your learning. What worked? What didn’t? What will you do differently next time? How did you improve from the last inquiry? Was your topic choice good or could it be better?
Write your reflection here...
My third Inquiry went pretty good. I think this was because i understood what i needed to do and i stayed focused.
The magnets Inquiry was really useful as it taught me that how magnets works and why they are important in our everyday lives.
I think my topic choice was good because my partner and I was really interested in how magnets are used in machines and electronics.
One of my goals was to explain how magnets work.by working on this goal it helped me to improve my learning because it taught me how to research properly and find facts.
The goal I did the best with was showing how magnets can attract. the reason it went so well was because I did a fun experiment and explained it very well.
I was a bit frustrated with how one goal went because i found it hard to explain magnetic fields in my own words.
Next time I will use more diagrams and ask for help earlier. this will help me because i will understand difficult parts better and to finish them on time.
Evidence of Term 2 goals being met.
Copy and paste all relevant evidence in the form of screenshots or written explanations of what was done to achieve your 4 goals for Term 2.
e.g. Test results, teacher feedback, parent feedback, peer feedback, your own explantion of things you did etc.
Understand how magnets work
I watched a video and took some notes in my inquiry. I used these these notes to explain how magnets attract and repel. I included this notes in my slides.
Improve my research skills
I used websites, AI, and books to find information about magnets. I uses that information to built my presentation. This helped me understand the topic better.
Use my time better
I made a plan to finish my work on time. I was able to finish my work on time so i can feel ready but because of my partner i got little bit delay.
5. Work better with others
I worked with a partner to plan the project. We shared ideas and helped each other with research. Sometimes my partner got distracted or didn't do his work. He always spend his time playing games which made bit harder for me to do all the work. This was frustrating and makes me consider not working with a partner again but I will try again at some stage.
