Universal Concept
This year our Inquiry is focused on Systems. This will involve students exploring the concept and forming Big Ideas e.g.
Systems are everywhere.
Systems are made up of parts.
If one part of a system doesn't perform, the system is compromised.
Once students have explored the concept, the whānau will design learning opportunities to explore these Big Ideas.
