Final Inquiry

Grade 9 Interdisciplinary Reflection

Final Inquiry

One important thing I learned about interdisciplinary learning is that all subjects are deeply connected and share core concepts, even if those links aren't immediately obvious. For example, I initially didn't think a story like "The Monkey's Paw" could connect to social studies or science, but reflecting on the material helped me see the bigger picture. The strongest subject connection for me was linking social studies to the history of rabbits in Australia. This connection stood out because it clearly showed how a single wish or decision much like a dilemma in a book can unexpectedly alter the entire path of a family or even a whole country before anyone realizes it is too late. Ultimately, this project helped me grow as a learner by showing me that when I am less interested in or struggling to understand a specific subject, I can bridge it with other subjects to build a better understanding and potentially discover new interests. If I could improve this project in a future revision, I would challenge myself to write more, make even deeper connections, and expand the presentation with additional slides.
