Goals for Living Well  Learning Well 

The Term 4 theme for Living Well Learning Well at Sacred Heart is 'Living Well, Learning Well'.  Each week we unpack a Core Value to remind us of the actions and behaviours to uphold in reaching our goals. 

Week 5-6 Core Value is: ''Adopt an Inquiry Mindset."

The students will write synonyms of the words 'Adopt', 'Inquiry' and 'Mindset' so they have an understanding of what each word means.

They will watch a video link - What is Inquiry-Based Learning.

Inquiry-Based Learning emphasises a student’s role in the learning process and asks them to engage with an idea or topic in an active way, rather than by sitting and listening to a teacher. The overall goal of an inquiry-based approach is for students to make meaning of what they are learning about and to understand how a concept works in a real-world context.

Children are continually asking questions in an attempt to make sense of the world, therefore Inquiry-Based Learning starts with a question ~How? Why? Where?

There is an old saying. 

TELL ME AND I'LL FORGET, SHOW ME AND I MAY REMEMBER, INVOLVE ME AND I WILL UNDERSTAND.
