After thinking long and hard about my inquiry and looking at the make-up of my class I have decided to change the focus for my inquiry to the students who need more support in class. These students can sometimes struggle to stay on task and stay focussed on any given activity. So my goal for them is to create high cognitive engagement activities that they can tackle on their own and help them become more independent learners.
I will have to look at wording these activities clearly in language they understand or providing them with appropriate images that will allow them to work through the process, communicating with each other to problem solve and encouraging them to work in small groups sharing their ideas and helping each other through the given activity.
By scaffolding these groups correctly each individual will have the chance to shine and use their own strengths to help the group.
