To start our new unit of learning, we asked the question ‘What if the population of the earth was reduced to just 100 people?’ 

We watched and discussed ‘If the world were a village of 100 people.’ We then thought of our own ‘I wonder…’ questions, which provoked some very thoughtful conversations. Examples were ‘I wonder how many would have food and water?’ ‘I wonder how many would have clean water?’ ‘I wonder how many languages they would know?’ ‘I wonder how many would be homeless?’ ‘I wonder how many would have access to an education?’ We then designed our very own miniature earth and added these to our class floor book.
