This week we have continued our inquiries into Space. We finished our presentations proving to Ms Wright that the Earth is round, worked through our theories about Leap Years, and wrote research papers about a celestial body.
Some students also took action by doing additional research projects and presenting to the class.

Ms Wright: ... since the Earth is flat... Aki: What?! Peter (looking astonished): Sorry, Ms Wright, what did you just say? Ms Wright: I was just saying that, since the Earth is flat... Caroline: But the Earth is round. Ms Wright: Round? Aki: Yes, Ms Wright. It's actually round. Ms Wright: But it feels flat to me. Seheon: That's because of gravity. Liam: See, here is a globe. It's a sphere. Ms Wright: But here is a map and it's flat. Ms Wright asked us to get in small groups to disprove her theory. We brainstormed our ideas. We then found support by doing research and conducting small experiments. We used our knowledge about how we communicate our perspectives to influence others to create our own advertisements. Two groups decided to make commercials. Do you want to buy our products? |
