Inquiry Groups on Transportation

Next in our social studies expedition work we split into inquiry groups.  Each group had a form of transportation to study.  We immersed groups in material on their topic.  They learned to read to find information, take notes, record facts, draw pictures that fit their learning and practice collaborating with their group members. Below are samples of our learning that we collected.

Researching trains and railroads

Investigating ships and boats

Learning about stagecoaches
