We have been making origami whales!

We read about the idea of making these whales at the “Origami Whale Project” site – and how they were used to raise awareness of the slaughter of whales internationally. Did you know that since 1986 over 30 000 whales have been killed by whalers from Iceland, Norway and Japan? 

Everyone folded the paper carefully and we strung the whales up on string to make a curtain of beautiful coloured whales in our room.

You can all make a virtual origami whale and send it off to the Japanese Prime Minister – just click here and off it goes!

Today we used a different Visible Thinking routine to kick start our individual Study Projects.

Our overall topic is the Ocean, but everyone is interested in different subjects and areas within this big topic.

The thinking routine we used was called:

Think

Puzzle

Explore

First we had to think of facts we knew (or thought we knew) about oceans.

Then we had to come up with something that puzzled us  or something we wondered about oceans.

Lastly we identified some areas of interest that we might explore as a class.

We used lots of post-it notes (MrsP should NOT buy cheapo ones from the $2 Shop – cos they don’t stick) but came up with lots of great ideas that we can follow through with in class, or in our individual Study Project.
