Adventure Island - A Visual Model, Part 1

Last week I wrote a blog post about the Adventure Learning model I've created to support children with Adventure Learning. You can view this blog post here - http://goo.gl/1QuqIj

Over the past week my Year 4 class have worked hard to come up with an individual design of what they think our the visual model 'Adventure Island' could look like. The idea is that each of the six stages in the model is represented by a visual icon on the island. See below for an example. This is a work in progress. The six stages of the model are written in bold. 



Adventure Island 


Explore at Sunshine Cove

Plan under the coconut palms

Discover at Mermaid Lagoon

Create at the volcano 

Share at the island tree house

Take it Further in the hot air balloon 



Here are the completed Adventure Island designs so far...

This afternoon Room 8 did a walk and gawk around the room to have a look at each other's designs. They were then given the opportunity to share ideas that they really liked, as well as to suggest what our next step might be. I was really impressed by the positive feedback that they gave each other. The children shared that they want to use different ideas, from as many islands as possible so that everyone feels included. 

As well as designing Adventure Island maps, Room 8 have also been designing badges. There is a badge to match each one of the six stages. As their group completes a stage they will earn a badge for their adventure explorer passport (still to be designed). Here are some of the designs. We will continue to keep you updated and would love any feedback.
