iExplore Group Narrative

Learning Area: Learning Habitat Two - iExplore

Learning Observed

For our iExplore we are looking at gardening. We have been preparing the garden beds so that we can start using them. For this we had to pull out all of the weeds. We used this to explain what a weed does and how it effects a garden. The learners had to use shovels and gardening gloves to pull out all of the weeds. Zoey and Nishita showed great collaboration with weeding. It was great to hear all the discussion around why they were taking the weeds out of the garden. Jeffa was having a great time and was looking for all the little weeds. He was very concerned that we would miss them. Datar was working for about ten minutes trying to get deep under a really big weed as the roots were very deep. All the discussion around the weeds was very impressive.

Evidence of learning

Datar trying to get under the weeds to get all the roots Zoey and Nishita working hard Jeffa making sure we didn’t miss any weeds

The vision principles that were being used was “collaboration” as the learners had to work together.
