| Summary: | A KS1 Primary Science class demonstration of the technique of collaborative enquiry proven to help sharpen thinking and stimulate imagination. Adaptable to other key stages. The class at Heather Primary School in Leicestershire is split into mixed ability groups and asked to look at a mysterious photograph, which is in fact of the mineral agate. The groups are first asked to consider what they know from the photograph and then what they would like to find out about the image. By building on each others' suggestions, the groups come up with some astute observations, including the possibility that the picture could be magnified. Finally, the pupils are asked to what it might be and their discussions lead to some imaginative answers, including the inside of a jelly fish or something inside a body. Philippa Cordingley, director of the Centre for the Use of Research and Evidence in Education comments on the lesson and how it links to practice that is proven to work.
