Shelterbox Challenge

Thanks to Chris Fuller, I am running a SoW this term with year 8 based around his Shelterbox Challenge series of lessons.

Due to a change in staffing for a short period of time we decided to make the teaching and learning more project based, so have designed a series of lessons around what students would want , need and feel in the aftermath of a natural disaster. The lessons build in the opportunity to look at the conditional  tense, daily routine, ideal houses and opinions and feelings. Pupils will then have to create their multi media presentations ready for the competition.

Tomorrow we have a volunteer from Shelterbox coming in to talk to the year 8 pupils so we can try to make the whole project feel worthwhile and purposeful. 

Pupils have begun to develop their language skills making use of language mats to support them.
