W6, T1: Problem Solving

We are looking at looking at solving problems this week.

Before we solve a problem we need to take risk and go into the learning pit. We need to take a risk and face challenges.

To be able to solve a problem sometimes we have to collaborate. Collaboration is about combining many ideas together to make a mega idea.

We used the Figure it out book: At camp to try and work out how to raise money for a camp trip. We then use different problem solving strategies to work out how we are going to get a cabbage, a goat, and a wolf across the river.

Some strategies we learnt was to plan our strategies and highlight the important information. Some us acted the problem, some of us made a list and drew a picture, some of us guessed and checked our answer, some of us went backwards and tried to find the pattern.


Can you see us collaborate and use some problem solving strategies?

W2, T2: Student Drop in Centre

We are developing our problem-solving skills. We started a drop-in centre where teachers can drop in with any of their ICT inquiries.

                                                They really tested our problem-solving skills!

Class update

What a term! We've done so many things this term. 1. Well done to Brooke, Rosie, Joy, Ashton and Kane who had placings in the Swimming zone. 2. We also had EOTC week in which we practised a lot of problem solving and collaboration. It was really tricky to use Aurasma for orienteering.
