Keep up the good work. || for our essential questions. Now we have started researching. ||  || most of our questions. || Well done girls. You seem to have put a lot of work into your questions and that is reflected in your answers. I like how you have included your sources at the end of each question.You have proof read your work and put your own thoughts down rather than just coping and pasting information that has no meaning. It reads very well. You are now ready to start your thinking hats and plan your presentation to the class. Keep up the good work! || //Using mostly self directed inquiry, you have sought to become informed about your selected issue, and could identify its causes and effects. You have grasped the wider implications of this issue and attempted to initiate social action. You planned and delivered a good presentation on floods and droughts. You didn’t really plan an action to make an impact in your immediate community.Overall, you have made a goodt effort with your assignment and would’ve received a higher grade if you completed a So What.// Final Grade 4 = Extending
