Room 4 Term 2

This term our focus was to stick to a time table to ensure we completed the entire process. It has not only been beneficial for the children but mainly for myself to keep on track. The children have been especially excited and interested in this terms topic. I am still directing the inquiry and I have found it tough to foucus on one question as the children are always asking more. It has been great to have a libray full of books to do with the topic because I have been able to direct the children to those books to find answers to their other questions. This has worked well. We have also used writing as a way of exploring other questions. Our focus has been on rain, clouds, and thunder storms and I have found that because the children already had a great knowledge base to start from that we have been able to ask deeper questions and find truley new information.
