Inquiry Day - How our brains work and growth mindset.


Today we spent our whole day looking into our inquiry. 

How do we learn? Or learning how to learn.

With this inquiry we are trying to grow our brains and help us become better learners, so we can learn whatever we want to. 

Here are some of the video's we looked at today. 

This is Ned the neuron, in the video he helps explain how our brain works. One key point in this video is that challenges help our brains grow.  




We also started some Neuron artwork that we will put on the blog at a later date. 

How our brain learns... what key points do you pick up when you watch this?



Below are the Growth Mindset videos we looked at. For these videos we completed a think chart to help us focus our thinking. After each video, everyone had to fill in the chart. We had to write down some things they will start doing, stop doing and keep doing.  

We also had to pick out any Learning Powers we saw.








Putting it all together


At the end of the day we asked. So what? 

So what are we going to do with this information? What are we going to start doing to help us become an awesome learner?
