True inquiry is often messy and recursive. We gather and sort then realize we have new questions so we return to some more gathering.

The cycle should INFORM planning, guide it but it doesn’t mean we can create the whole thing before we start...I see that planner as a guide throughout the process – not as a template to be filled in one sitting.  The cycle is emergent….how kids ‘sort out’ the ideas information depends on what they gather – and that is not something we can determine in detail.  The cycle unfolds.

display the cycle but only if it is referred to, analysed, played with and critiqued!]]> 2018-03-17 22:20:50 UTC https://padlet.com/principal302/18y5ykesfoh8/wish/243125302 Inquiry in Maths principal302 https://padlet.com/principal302/18y5ykesfoh8/wish/243125771 Have a look at these amazing examples of Inquiry and have a go yourself.
