At St. Rita, we will be starting a new approach to learning Social Studies. Inquiry based learning is a method whereby the students ask the questions they wish to find more about on the topic of interest. As a class, we then research and share our findings.
Part of our Social Studies curriculum involves identifying and making connections with our countries of origin as well as the diverse cultures around the world.
Our class has begun a special reading to prepare for a presentation that will take place in all of our classes here at St Rita. Seven lucky students from each Grade 2 class will be chosen to deliver this mini presentation to one class in the school with the efforts of finding out which cultures exist here at St.Rita. Please assist your child in rehearsing this reading which is available in their french duotangs.
More to come on our inquiries...
