CONNECTING TOGETHER

Today we had a fun afternoon in our community with a "Connection Immersion". The motivation activity was to kick off our Inquiry learning around "Connections".  In mixed class groups we moved through a series of 9 connection activities including making paper doll chains, creating electrical circuits, builing with Lego, making paper chains, creating 3D puzzles and learning lessons from migrating geese (see youtube link below). At each activity we had to answer these questions to get us thinking about connections: 

• How are these things connected?, 
• What would happen if the connection was broken?
• What other things can you think of that connect this way?

Here are some photos of the event.
