Unit 2 Intro

Dear Parents,

We have started our second Unit of Inquiry. Students are being led into an inquiry about how people use and create tools to solve problems. Children are welcome to bring different tools they can find at home (tools used in the kitchen, bathroom, garden, swimming pool) or when practicing sports. The aim of this activity is to spark their interest about tools and their uses and how they help us in our daily lives.           

We would also like to invite parents to come and share some of the tools used in their work or hobbies. Please contact your class teacher if you would be willing to participate, so the necessary arrangements can be made.

Thank you,
