Room 4 Inquiry - Heroes

More concentrated effort put into this stage of Immersion by myself resulting in all children [even the very young] able to use the key competency language when discussing heroes. Having “Thinking” and what it means on display makes me refer to the sign constantly. This, I hope, will begin to impact on making the children put more thought into their own ideas when having discussions. I have realised that I have to be the strong model of effective questioning to guide the children’s learning of how two ask a good question because through observations this is not happening. By trialling the use of Drama in this Immersion stage the children are developing a much stronger understanding of thinking what it must be really like to be blind, deaf or have no legs.
