Tuning in into new unit: Construction Dynamix

Students were given PLACEMATS with images of different environments such as desert, snow, etc. With the given resources, students in groups created houses appropriate for that environment. As you can see from the pictures, students displayed creativity and logic to make apt structures. Each student contributed to the group by taking on a role such as resource manager, discussion manager, recording manager, etc. The houses showcase students' knowledge about the world around them and their skills in optimising the resources provided.

Students later reflected on what they think they will learn in this unit and wrote central ideas of their own. It is indeed amazing, how close they were to the Central Idea of the unit.
