We are investigating if water is and essential resource for life and on our journey we were learning about the water cycle. Here are a few examples of one of the activities that we have completed.
We were finding information on Mercury and Earth going online. We used the website called NASASpacePlace. We had to read the information and then choose where we could add the information on our sheets. We were also learning how to write our information using bullet points.
To complete the activities, we had to use the learner dispositions:
reflective (thinking about the information so we could add it to the correct area on our sheets)
resilient (toughing it out because it took a long time and some of the words tripped us up)
reciprocal (we worked in groups)
resourceful (we had to make decisions about how we would go about finding the information, using the information and how to solve problems).
