Primary 6&7 have been using a great resource so they can look at data from around the world and use it to compare life in different countries.
Using the Gapminder tools online they have been able to compare things like income, life expectancy and child mortality for a range of places around the world, creating their own comparison graphs on Excel.
They have also visited Dollar Street, a fantastic tool that show exactly what it means to live on one of the four income levels, no matter where in the world you live. The children have researched a family living on one of the income levels, and created a fact file. We now know a lot more about the world around us, based on facts!
