Pay attention to the questions he posed:
	* What other questions could be asked to elicit the students' ideas on the concept of area?		{{:Video/Abel_Clip_2.m4v/reflection}}
	* How might a 'think pair share' approach to the class discussion have affected students' learning?
	* Consider the question, ‘How do/~~can we measure area?’~~. ~~How might this question be developed into a useful enquiry activity for students?~~

In the itinerary: decide on the length of your imaginary journey and work out the travelling time, but also think about the practical arrangements: how much luggage (water, food, equipment) will you need to take and how will you be able to carry this? Are there any elderly people or young children in your party, who might need special provision, such as extra food, or more frequent stops?

	Part A: Small group planning task.

	Work with the same small group of colleagues to develop the resources (e.g. worksheets and materials) for one or two enquiry ideas that you have discussed just now that will be necessary to carry on the enquiring process by your students. Bring these resources next week (including the materials like the paper for the paper aeroplane) so that you can start the data collection and interpreting process as a group. Remember that you have time to work on at most two enquiry ideas so please choose the idea(s) that you really want to work on! If you think that you have OTHER ideas that you prefer to work on, that is fine but do ensure that you have thought through the questions we have suggested to you earlier. You may find this document useful as it contains some further enquiry ideas that have been developed by students alongside examples of their work: [[file:Developing Higher Order Scientific Enquiry Skills.pdf]]		Work with the same small group of colleagues to develop the resources (e.g. worksheets and materials) for one or two enquiry ideas that you have discussed just now that will be necessary to carry on the enquiring process by your students.
