I couldn’t resist putting up these great photos of Year 2 thinking about ‘who or what made the tracks?’, today’s daily challenge thinking question. After much deliberation, the class decided that it was elephants that made the tracks. They chose to work together in groups to create the elephants as junk models.
Click bleow to take a look at the elephants and to see the children in further thought… I wonder where the elephant was going? Where in the world were tracks were found? What were the tracks found in… mud, sand, chocolate, butter? Shall we follow them? I love the deep in thought expressions on the children’s faces as perhaps they ponder these questions.
Super thinking, Year 2. What a creative way to answer this question. Your model elephants are fantastic. I like all your attention to detail and how you chose the different materials that suited the different parts of the elephants body. Tubes made great trunks and egg boxes super ears. I can’t believe that you created these in the 30 minute timeframe. You must have worked really well as a team. Well done!
