We want to ensure that our inquiries are structured in such a way that will
introduce strategies and guide and support the children as they experience
and develop those independent inquiry skills. We want the child to actively
participate rather than feel intimidated, unenthusiastic or even bored. By
selecting a level of inquiry that will offer that necessary support, you are
setting the students up for greater success with their learning.
Different ways of leading inquiry in the class are as below:

We also look forward to the help from you in making these learning more
relevant, interesting, concrete and fun at the same time by taking some
initiatives at home. We request you to have a discussion about the
organizations, and their functions, social responsibility towards society.
Encourage the kids to research and find out if such similar practices were
followed in any organization. Kindly encourage the child to record his findings
and present it to you and in the class as well. You are also welcome to suggest
the ideas or resources which you feel will be relevant to the unit. You can also
share the articles or items that can be shown in the classroom which will help
students to make connections and enhance their learning. Also, encourage
your ward to complete the assignments/ H.W.`s on time, sit with your ward
while they are involved in research or homework tasks and have a
conversation on the research work / homework they are doing to help them
understand better, we are open to your suggestions on any unit related books
That you might want to share that can enhance their understanding.

Regards,
