Description

Inquiry Overview:

In this inquiry, students will research German inventions of everyday items, such as the hole punch, toothpaste, and the coffee filter, and create a poster to share what they have learned. Through a gallery walk, students will determine which of the researched inventions they felt were the most innovative, most useful, most creative, had the greatest impact, and would be missed the most if no longer available.
