Our next inquiry theme is all about the arts and how people might choose to express themselves or their emotions.
What do we want our children to achieve?
To understand and communicate thoughts, emotions and feelings with others using a variety of methods, e.g. music, dance, drama, visual art.
How will this learning affect the child today and everyday?
They will learn appropriate ways to express themselves and to read the emotions of others.
What problems might they solve using this new knowledge?
Interpersonal skills – children may solve disputes in a variety of settings if they are able to understand and empathise with how someone else is feeling.
What can they create based on this learning?
Dramas, dance, visual arts, music, peace and harmony.
