Exploring, Thinking and Making a Connection

We are welcoming two year 6 classes into the station this week after their awesome camp adventures.  Continuing with our theme of staying safe and strong online these two classes have been hard at work planning what they're going to create to earn their Level 3 Safe and Strong badge. 

When we're working in the Exploration Station we always start by thinking about our learning and exploring the topic we're working on.  Once we're ready and think we have enough information to start creating we work on a plan.  

We use a Google slide deck to plan, the slide deck is just a place to hold our thoughts - we might have typed our thoughts onto it, created pictures of our plan or we might have drawn our plan on a whiteboard and then taken a photo of it and put it into our slide deck.   This keeps all our planning in one place so we can refer back to it. 

When we have finished our plan the extra awesome bit happens - we get to put it into action.  This is our Making a connection and Share and shine part of our learning pathway.
