PHASE ONE: Inquiring and Making Connections
Sometimes all it takes is a huge piece of cardboard to inspire the students imagination! Staff started by placing a large cardboard wall into the lodge. The next step was to ask the students what they felt the walls should be turned into. Some said a pirate ship, fire truck, library, robot house and others wanted a space ship but most of them wanted a castle! |
Provocation

on what the group interests are. |
Family Research ProjectThis is where we found out their baseline knowledge, what they already knew about castles.

Vocabulary Development
