 ** Week 1: Challenge ** Come to the front of the room so we can develop our **Family Dream** scenario a little more. The horses, bikes and swimming sound great but what else do we need to consider when living on a bush property?
 * __Challenge 1 __** ** Introduction **

Before you start the next activity you will be given a KWL sheet and a pencil so you can make notes. (What I know, What I want to know, What I learned)
 * View the following PowerPoint and be prepared to respond to it in a class discussion.**
 * Victorian Bushfire Presentation**
 * __ Challenge 2 __**** Finding out what you know **

Are you ready? Let's use the **tablet** to take part in an interactive whiteboard activity about fire. Once you've put in your answer, pass the tablet on to the next person. You will gain some more knowledge about fire and learn some good tips for organising your research. 1. Once you enter the Learning Federation website, log in your details. 2. In the search bar type in the word 'bushfire'. 3. Click on the 'Wonder World TV Show: Bushfires' tutorial 4. Enjoy the show and remember to take notes!

Now it’s time to get with a partner from your reading group.. You will work with this partner for the whole project. Remember the great skills you already know about what makes a good group member. Part of your assessment will be on how well you work together. You will need to complete each challenge before moving on to the next one.

You and your partner will use your KWL sheets and Word software to brainstorm for good sub-topics about fire. Think of things you would find very interesting to research. Put your name on your sheet and copy it into the Teacher File on your computer. Your teacher will use your brainstorms to choose the most popular sub-topics. Next week you will be assigned a sub-topic about fire to research.
