Five Senses Posters

Students decided that creating a poster would be a great way to share some of the knowledge we have gained about the five senses. Mrs. Hnatiuk shared a lesson on "text features" with students to get them started on the right track. After completing the posters each group presented their poster to the class. As viewers and listeners our job was to consider 2 things the group did well and 1 wish for improvement (2 stars and a wish) focusing on the text features that we had looked at. We recorded these stars and wishes along with all of the wonderful vocabulary students used as they discussed their posters. We used the stars, wishes and vocabulary to go back and improve our posters.

The most important part of the Inquiry Process is reflecting on our learning. The following comments were made by students after completing this activity. 

Reflecting

We shared our posters and what was good about them. Grace

I was thinking my group could add more pictures and details. Details make our poster better. Jack 

We shared our thinking. Leah

We need to add more text features.  Caroline

By making a wish we're helping the groups to have more ideas to make the posters better.  Amani

I listened carefully and I learned more about the five senses.  Jerzee

When I was talking my class listened to me and so I listened to my friends when it was their turn.  Jon

Our brains had a workout listening to all the good ideas (just like we learned in health)! Leah 

We make the wishes to help people.  Jayden

We learned we need to add more writing to make your poster more detailed. Jack
