What's the 'BIG IDEA?'

This week we have really been tuning into our new UOI. On Friday, we took the time to engage in another learning provocation. The rotations were designed to get children understanding the concept of 'a big idea' and to help them understand how one common theme can be expressed through various artistic forms. We took the idea 'cafeteria' as all children are familiar with it. Then children moved around five rotations where the teacher and the students created artworks, dramatisations, music, sculptures and dances all based on this common idea.
