LH1 Pet iExplore - Learning Story - September 2015

Learner: Jahnavi & Vrishti                                                     Learning Coach: D Wilkes

Learning Area: iExplore, Social Science & Science                                 Date:  Term 3

Learning Observed

Vrishti has been diligently completing her iExplore on identifying the most suitable habitat pet.  She has been researching, refining her ideas and recording her learning for others to use to learn.  She has used this as an opportunity to complete a statistical investigation in order to determine which animal our LH1 learners think would make a good pet.  When Jahnavi joined our habitat the two learners decided to collaborate on the project together.  The iExplore learning adventure stemmed from their curiosity around which animals schools are allowed to have as pets. The girls have responded to feedback from Learning Coach and learners in our conferencing sessions and are open to ideas.

Key Competencies/Vision Principles

Vrishti and jahnavi have shown they can be collaborative when sharing their research and receiving feedback.  They have demonstrated capability at researching to answer specific questions- skimming and scanning and pulling our key ideas when summarising texts. They are making connections to prior knowledge and experiences.  It will be exciting if we get a pet after all this work!
