This is a coding inquiry I do with my class for 1/2nd grades. It is Structured Inquiry because "Students investigate a teacher-presented question through a prescribed procedure."

One activity I wanted to share from my elementary school days was Simple Circuits. In this activity, each student was asked to build a basic circuit to light the lightbulb. This would be an example of guided inquiry because students must figure out how to make a circuit and light the light bulb with the materials they are given. When looking at each person's post, two that stood out to me were Mk's and Isabella's. Regarding Mk's post, I wanted to comment that I conducted a similar experiment in elementary school, and guided inquiry was the focus of the experiment. Following Isabella's post, I also wanted to comment that I have conducted a similar experiment involving spaghetti and marshmallows.

After reading the article about the 4 types of Inquiry, share one type of Inquiry you have done in school and try to identify it by the type listed. Be sure to read other class members posts and comment on at least 2. by Renee Watts
