Welcome to investiGATE! We are students in the GATE (Gifted and Talented) programme at Kimihia School. The purpose of this blog is to share some of our learning with friends, family and interested readers. We hope you enjoy joining us on our learning journey and welcome your comments and ideas.
Throughout Term 4 the Year 7/8 Inquiry group have been investigating their own inquiry questions. Today they shared their learning with the group. All the students have worked hard researching, analysing and evaluating the information they acquired. Many picked the brains of experts in their field and conducted surveys to gain information from a variety of sources.
Kaleesha wanted to investigate the role of the harp in an orchestra and find the instruments perceived to be most important. She presented her findings by writing alternative lyrics to Taylor Swifts "We Are Never, Ever, Getting Back Together", and did a fantastic job. Well done Kaleesha!
Look out for more posts sharing the work of these hard working students.
