I thought that the SCIL presentations were a fun way to show what we have learned about space. As we got to present it to others in a gallery walk, it helped us to practise presenting in front of others. I made a video with voice overs and transitions. Overall, it was a fun experience compared to other assessments on SCIL. Krishna R (5W)
I liked the freedom and creativity of this activity to answer the inquiry question, ‘Why are there so many dwarf planets and what is their purpose?’ I made a movie which took a lot of time and effort and help, but it was worth it in the end because I got the presentation award for my class. I liked seeing other people’s creativity and way of thinking and I would like to do it again. Christian C (5W)
I really enjoyed having our presentations. We got to showcase the hard work we’ve accomplished to our parents and our teachers. I personally loved learning about space. Showing everybody what we’ve done has really helped me grow confidence in myself, but not just in myself. I saw my friends and others also enjoying what they’ve done. I would definitely want to do something like this again in the future. Leah T (5B)
I grew confidence in myself by doing the project. When I first started researching my big question about space and astronauts, I didn’t know that much. After all my researching, I’ve learned such a lot. Alandra A (5B)
I loved coming up with my own inquiry question, then researching independently to answer it. I’ve always wondered so much about space and this topic helped me answer all my questions. It also helped me with my research skills. I learned so much about planets and what their environments are like. Isabella T (5K)
During this project, I really enjoyed coming up with my inquiry question. I loved working all about how astronauts survive in space. It also improved my research and information skills. I hope we do something like this again. Lilianna T (5K)
