Been an engaging and interesting experience so far with this project.
Taking my experience working with this school and the last project and in that I will be working with the whole year group, which means 300 plus children, the school agreed to my role being initially a planning role. This has meant I have spent time with teachers (from the art and the geography department) and with a selected group from the year group. Together we have devised the project and exercises they will undertake on their ‘deep learning day’.
Working with some of the children we tested out their ideas on each other before settling on the task.
The school have been great in that I asked if rather then the teachers telling the children the answer, we can ask a question and hear the answer(s) they might come up with.
From their research I will then combine into an artwork. All sounding very exciting and can’t wait till the days out.
