Y4: Who We Are - Diversity

The first unit of inquiry for the Y4s is Who We Are with the central idea being that by exploring different cultures, students can develop an appreciation of diversity.   Specifically, they will be examining:

• What culture is
• The connection between beliefs, values and culture
• Diversity of cultures

To make the books for this unit more meaningful and individualised, students picked out a book from a library that they connected to this UOI. Students then had their photo taken with the book and they had to briefly state why they chose the book to represent the theme of diversity. All the Y4s with their books and their respective explanations were collected on a virtual wall display via Padlet, that as seen on the each Y4 Class websites.
