This document provides an overview for a Year 5 unit of inquiry on unequal access to water. The central idea is that many factors contribute to creating unequal access to water. Lines of inquiry include the causes of unequal access, how water is used globally, and how equal access can be managed and sustained. Students will inquire into rights and responsibilities in sharing finite resources, communities and relationships, and access to equal opportunities. They will explore key concepts such as change, causation, and responsibility and develop attitudes of cooperation and confidence and exemplify learner profile attributes of being inquirers and knowledgeable.
