Year 9 Gadal – Project Based Learning

Students in Year 9 are working on project-based learning units. The units are interactive and investigative, enabling students to foster a deeper understanding of the topics and develop the skills needed to learn.

Project-based learning units are built around real-world topics. This helps students connect their learning to the world outside the classroom.

Our Year 9 students have been working on project-based learning units in English, Science and Humanities.

During their unit on Plate Tectonics in Science, students have been investigating the earth’s structure and how the movement of tectonic plates causes earthquakes and tsunamis. They use this knowledge to design solutions to reduce the damage caused by seismic events.
