Driving Questions
Look at the three Driving Questions below and in your groups, decide which question you would like to answer. Each group can answer the same question or each group can answer different questions. The choice is yours!
- How can we upcycle waste materials into useful or beautiful products?
- How can we create a guide that teaches others about different diets and dietary restrictions?
- How can we grow our own fruits and vegetables to be used in the school cafeteria?
Thinking Routine: Pass The Parcel
What will your group do or make to answer your Driving Question? Follow the prompts below to draw or write out some ideas with your group. Remember to download or save your work for future use!
Think about your group’s question and what you might already know about this topic. The aim of this exercise is to get you thinking and working together to create ideas. Everything is possible here!
As you REFLECT on what has been learned about food, think about connections with your Driving Question. With these connections, you have unwrapped the first layer of the parcel.
IDENTIFY significant connections that you would like to explore further and think about why they are significant to you. With each significant connection you identify, you unwrap another layer.
EXPLORE all ways you can to understand what it is about these connections that can help you unwrap the parcel and reach the prize. Each exploration removes another layer.
What will you do to ACT on all you have learned, so the last wrapping paper will come loose and your treasure is in reach?
