Adventure Learning

This year, Mr Walker got introduced about Adventure Learning. Everyone of us in class is doing Adventure Learning. Adventure Learning is about choosing a specific subject and trying to go deeper into it. 

Here are the steps:
1. Choose a subject to work on
2. Write down some questions you would like to find out
3. Try to get the answers. You could:
Surf the internet
Skim and scan in books
Ask your friends/family
4. Make it into something interesting, like a powerpoint, speech, poster, etc

I am doing my on Music. I have written down some questions like:
1. What was the first instrument ever created?
2. What is an instrument?
3. Who created singing?

I have found a lot of answers. Mr Walker gave me an idea of making my own instrument. I am thinking of making a Fitness Instrument. It is sort of like the game, Twister. It includes singing, dancing, and playing an instrument.  The problem is, I have to do some wire connecting and that is too hard for me. I will take my time to make the 'real deal'. I am just going to make a miniature clay sculpture and show it in class. Now I am wondering, what kind of clay should I use......

  1. It's good that you are enjoying your project, after all, you did choose it yourself. I can't wait to see your instrument created, do you think that you'll play it in class for us?

    What might your next adventure learning project be about?

  2. Hi Mr Walker,
    Thank you so much for taking your time for posting a comment. I might be able to play it into the class. The instrument is about my height, so I am thinking of making a miniature sculpture of it.

    I think my next adventure learning would be on Languages. I am really interested, and I hope the class would like it as well.

    Thank you once again for commenting on my blog.

  3. Hello Renitta,
    That is such a lovely piece of writing. It is very unique. My school is doing adventure learning as well. I am doing my on dinosaurs. I love dinosaurs.
    Did you enjoy writing it?

  4. Hello Christopher,
    Thank you so much for your comment. I enjoyed writing it, but it is too hard to make it, so I am going to make the real instrument later. I need my time with it. I just hope it will finish around 2014. It's gonna take a long time!

    Thank you sooo much.
