Since our last blog our journey has not progressed as well i had hoped at the beginning of the term. Although the class have been working on our topic, i am unsure if it is a purely inquiry process. Many of the children have been chosing their own areas to research into such as the different types of earthquakes and volcanoes through a powerpoint presentation. As part of our written language we have been aiming to write an explanation around a natural disaster and a cause and effect relationship. The class have been able to choose the medium to present their explanation and choose what they wanted to explain i feel at times we are doing more of a thematic approach rather than an inquiry process... not sure will have to do more thinking and reflective discussion with the staff around this.
