Self directed learning, we are researching the journey of our rubbish

This is Room 1 on a Tuesday morning working on our inquiry. Action makes a difference. Children have choice in their learning. Along with choice comes responsibility.

Phoebe has chosen to write a letter requesting permission to fund-raise for our new recycling bins. Later she works with Molly to work out how much money we need to raise. Some children have chosen to work alone, other have decided to work with a buddy. Some children have chosen to complete their project on a computer and others want to create a poster. Lucy has decided to make a movie.
