No Prep Plans: IB Learner Profile in Action — InquirerCuriosity Investigation Mini Exhibit | Grades 6–8
Help students put the IB Learner Profile attribute of Inquirer into action with this ready-to-use research and group project!

- Develop a meaningful, open-ended question
- Research using reliable sources and evidence
- Identify discoveries that surprised or changed their thinking
- Create a mini exhibit showcasing their findings
- Highlight questions that remain unanswered
- Explore a real researcher or organization investigating a related question
- Present and reflect on their inquiry
WHAT’S INCLUDED
- Teacher Directions for 1–2 class periods (45–60 minutes each)
- Inquirer Overview & Mini Research Questions
- 5-Step Group Activity
- Online Research Resources
- 3 Student Research & Project Pages
- Exhibit planning and layout activities
- Question Cascade & deeper-thinking reflection
