What does LIMITED RESOURCES mean?

This is what we want our students to understand prior to starting the new unit. To make them grasp the concept of LIMITED RESOURCES, the students were asked to choose 5 materials they will need to come up with a Christmassy artwork. It was fun to observe them as they were choosing the materials and also as they were making them. Let us see what will they bring in to the reflection part of the activity. :)




















I See, I Think, I Wonder

As part of tuning into the new unit, the Grade 1 students were given a challenging task - they went around the school and looked at the garbage disposal system we have. They tok note of what they saw and observed in the I SEE column.  The follow up task will focus on wha they THINK and what they WONDER. :)
