The students carried out their own inquiry into the central idea <strong>\u2018Our actions reflect our beliefs\u2019<\/strong> and they designed an inquiry around an area of personal interest for them. They worked in collaborative teams to research questions about this area of interest, using primary and secondary sources. Each team was supported by a mentor throughout the process. Mentors were staff members from across the College. The students composed their information in an essay and used creative products and displays to share their learning with the community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our Year 4 students are to be commended on their engagement with the Exhibition and on the very impressive way that they were able to articulate their knowledge and understanding of significant issues. A special thank you must be extended to all who worked with the students throughout the Exhibition process, most particularly our mentors and our Year 4 teachers who worked extremely hard to ensure that every student had the opportunity to be successful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was so joyful to have an event like this onsite, after two years of presenting this as a recorded event. Thank you to all who attended and congratulations to Year 4!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are some thoughts from our Year 4 students:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I learnt that you have to get your research from a reliable source if you want it to be correct. I also think that my team have worked really hard together and our teamwork was really good and I have learnt that their are only 76 Javan Rhinos left in the world!\u00a0<\/em><br>Keira<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I use to think that women\u2019s rights were not a problem.<\/em> <em>When I researched the subject I found out that it was a very big thing in Australia and it really inspired me to keep on researching. What I now know is that women\u2019s equality impacts a lots of women\u2019s life and now I am glad I research it for my Exhibition.<\/em><br>Emiie<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>My team researched poverty and we had a blast during the Exhibition. We loved mentor meetings because our mentor gave us a lot of ideas. Our team loved working on our videos and our creative products like our clay sculpture even if it was hard. Now we know what poverty is and how to cope with other people and we loved interviewing Mrs Sulis across the road.<\/em><br>Serena<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I learned a lot of interesting things i didn&#8217;t know before, like why certain sports are better for you and how much sport can change your wellbeing. I also learned a lot about teamwork. I thought the Exhibition would be very hard and I wouldn&#8217;t be able to think of something, I learned a lot about well-being and how to be a good teammate. Now I think that the Exhibition is fun and a good way to make friends.<\/em><br>Dimi<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>I have learned so much about nuclear physics, energy and weaponry. I have learned how to get all the information by researching. My friends and I had so much fun together in my group. We also have made a great team, helping each other and supporting each other. i have learned about fusion and fission with nuclear energy.<\/em><br>Peter<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I<em> learnt how to properly structure an essay. I researched nuclear physics and weapon facts using Kiddle and Britannica. My team had awesome teamwork and we all worked together to finish the exhibition.<\/em><br>Rohan<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Current Units of Inquiry<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our students in all grade levels are now working on their final unit of inquiry for the year. They are inquiring into the following central ideas:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prep: Communities work together<br>Kindergarten: Guardianship of the planet is a shared responsibility<br>Year 1: Humans can communicate in verbal and non-verbal ways with others<br>Year 2: Games connect people<br>Year 3: Cultural understanding is built through aesthetic appreciation<br>Year 4: Commemoration and celebration connects to identity<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have any resources or expertise connected with these ideas, we would love to hear from you!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Karen Campbell <\/strong><br>Curriculum (PYP) Coordinator<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2022\/10\/IMG_4192_1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"4141\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2022\/10\/IMG_4192_1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4141\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2022\/10\/IMG_4176_1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"4142\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2022\/10\/IMG_4176_1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4142\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2022\/10\/IMG_4179_1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"4143\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2022\/10\/IMG_4179_1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4143\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2022\/10\/IMG_4191_1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-id=\"4144\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/72\/2022\/10\/IMG_4191_1-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4144\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last week, we witnessed a wonderful celebration of learning presented by our Year 4 students as the outcome of their Exhibition process.
