Term 3 Inquiry

Term 3 Inquiry


This term you will be working on an inquiry about Creating a new civilisation.  Ms Vari has shared with you the ‘A Brave New World’ powerpoint where you were introduced to the topic.

Create a Brave New World folder in your Google drive.  All of your working notes, resources, slides, drawings, documents etc will need to be saved into this folder.

For this Inquiry project your driving question has been given to you this time and it is:


How will your group
survive and establish a
civilization that will stand
the test of time?


What you need to do next is to create 4 key questions to support your driving questions.  Make sure you look at ‘A Brave New World’ powerpoint on our website as there are supporting questions in there that Ms Vari has given you.

You will also need to brainstorm around each of your key questions to ensure that you understand the different areas and resources that you will need as part of your collecting information stage. There are a lot of resources on the website if you need support. Check out the Science and Social Science pages to start with. I have given an example of a very basic brainstorm for one key question to get you started.




Go to your
google classroom
to ensure that you complete the “hand in” aspects of Planning by the Friday the 5th August.  

You will be required to complete some of this work in your own time - Yes that is right HOMEWORK!

Good luck and keep positive! If you have any questions contact your mentor either through email or during face to face class time.

Wattpad Cool Prompt: Read this before you read :-)




 Many of you like to read Wattpad, and this is a really good page to read before you get started reading.  Much of it applies to other stuff you read too.
