Hi Laura,
another teacher shared this book and her class’ Leprechaun traps just a few days ago. I’ll have to check out the book,
Design and Make that uses the children’s understanding is a great way to use the inquiry process. The investigation step looks slightly different, instead of
- Starter Question
- Predicting
- Conducting the Investigation
- Sharing: Interpreting the data / results
You have
- Explore
- Plan
- Make
- Evaluate
In both formats the children should refer to what they know and what they find out from the investigation/design as they incorporate their new understanding into their science modelling of the world.
