The statement of inquiry is:
Developing functional models requires collaboration.
The Approaches to Learning (ATL) Skill being highlighted is:
Collaboration skills: Working effectively with others: Helping others to succeed.

For their second unit, Y6 students will be designing and printing their own stickers which show their House affiliation and help build a sense of identity and community.
