How are Cultures and Traditions Expressed through dance?

During Week 1, we had a variety of learning experiences to tune us into ideas about our new big question for this term-how are cultures and traditions expressed through dance? We had a performance from the Boys High Pacifica group, a performance from St Peters Pacifica group and a drumming workshop. I enjoyed the St Peters Pacifica group most because it was alot of fun and some of the St James students went up the front and did the dance with them. Something new I learnt was the way of pacifican people and the language and also their dancing.

My Final Inquiry Picture!

WALT: Present the information I have learnt during my inquiry simly and clearly so that others can gain the most important information from my presentation.

This voicethread explains what I have learnt during my inquiry on the Glow-Worm. Something I think I did really well during this inquiry process was finding the information about their habitat because I found the information quite fast. Next time I do an inquiry something I could improve on is useing skimming and scanning and also keywords to sumarise all the main ideas because I mostly wrote full sentences. The part I liked best about doing an inquiry was doing my final presentation because it was alot of fun and took alot of hard working dedacation to get it finished.

Walt:Use Blabberize to share information on our Inquiry learning.

I used blabberize to make this video. The information I used is what I have found out so far during my inquiry on the Glow-Worm. An interesting fact I have found out about the Glow-Worm is that their head is hard.

Year 6 Camp!!!

This slideshow shows some of the fantastic times on camp. Such as the time when we were at the Spring Grove Animal Farm Park, or the time when I was abseiling and also when we were on the fern walk. I used animoto to make it. The highlight of camp was the concert and burma trail because the concert was a good laugh and the burma trail because it was really SPOOKY!

Resources!

Walt:Follow an inquiry process by listing all the places we can find inrormation.

Memory Drawing!!!

WALT:Access our prior knowledge.

I used voicethreadto share my drawing of a glow worm. This is my drawing at the start of my inquiry. I will do another drawing near the end of my inquiry and it will hopefully show all the new learning I will have done.
