Our Pre-Primary classroom has been transformed into an exciting Under the Sea learning environment, sparking wonder, curiosity, and lots of rich discussion!
Using Trevor MacKenzie’s Pencil Theory and a KWL (What we Know, Want to know, and will Learn) approach, our young learners began by exploring what they already know about the ocean and what they are eager to discover. During their "campfire" conversations, the children examined ocean images, shared their observations, made connections, and asked thoughtful questions.
Together, they created a word wall full of ocean vocabulary and sea creatures, celebrating the incredible knowledge and ideas already swimming around in their classroom!
The excitement is only just beginning. Next week, they will start creating their investigation floor book, where the children's questions, discoveries, and learning will continue to guide their inquiry. We can't wait to see where their curiosity takes us!
