← Jeremy's Grade 5 home

Question → evidence → action → reflection

Inquiry and capstone milestones

This page can connect to the school's Guided Discovery programme, but the January–May project is an independently labelled home capstone—not a school-branded project.

Semester 1 · one six-to-eight-week inquiry

Wait for the school's live unit order. Forces in motion is the cleanest published connection; Hong Kong and the world may support an economics or civic question. Do not duplicate the same school unit at home, and let Jeremy's question come first.

1

Question

Jeremy helps shape one worthwhile question after checking the school programme.

2

Evidence

Use observations, experiments, interviews, or trustworthy sources—not a worksheet-only unit.

3

Artifact

Build a model, explanation, guide, or testable prototype.

4

Action

Make one real decision or take one small action because of the inquiry.

5

Audience

Share beyond the parent who helped and record feedback.

Alignment boundary

School connection

Use a Guided Discovery concept, observation, or skill only when it complements the live school order. A major school project always takes priority.

Independent capstone

Keep the home question, milestones, evidence, and audience clearly independent. Shrink or pause it during heavy school weeks; missed work never becomes backlog.

January–May milestone path

  1. JanuaryNarrow one worthwhile question for the independent home capstone and record why it matters.
  2. FebruaryGather varied sources or observations and record who made them, why, and what they cannot establish.
  3. MarchBuild a claim/evidence map and an early artifact.
  4. AprilTest the explanation with a reader or user; revise from specific feedback.
  5. MayPublish and present the outcome, action, reflection, and remaining uncertainty.
