Independent Inquiry Research Skills Task Cards

Develop their natural curiosity with structured research, specified concepts and presentations. These print and go cards are designed to help children learn more about researching for answers. The Approaches to Learning skills focus on thinking, communication and research skills, as the children learn to research their inquiries, connect their own thinking with the inquiry and add their own questioning to add depth to their research. Their newly found knowledge is then presented in a way that can be structured with the spinner activity or in a free method, as per your instructions.

The key concept spinners can be used to add rigour to the activity as well as further encouraging the children to think through the conceptual lens.

INCLUDED:

• 32 inquiry cards covering all of the key concepts
• 4 blank inquiry cards for your own use
• Spinners with colour and black line for key concepts and methods of presenting.
