Representation is the part of our inquiry when we start to discuss in depth how we can share what we have learned. We focus on the ways we can document our processes, ideas, theories, transformations, and understandings and make them visible to other people.
We were lucky enough to have our yearly assembly presentation scheduled right around the time we were ready to start representing our learning. We considered our audience (Kindergarten 1 to Grade 5 students, parents, and teachers) and decided that the most significant thing we could represent was the types of conflicts that occur for students at our school and how they can resolve them with peaceful solutions.
We had lots of class discussions about exactly what this would look like and decided that "role play" was the best way to show what we wanted to express. Together we wrote a script and started practicing!

We think we did a great job of representing our learning and teaching the school how they can handle their conflicts. What do you think?
We even inspired Aina M. in K1PA to create a puppet show using ideas from our performance. She showed two characters having a conflict over what game to play and finding a peaceful solution by choosing to play both games together...just like we did with tag and ball!
