P6a have been debating with the adults on child labour. Using the rights of the child they created argument why children should not be used as a cheap labour source in a factory. We also discussed health and family implication of these. We’ll done for some well argued points!
We worked collaboratively to research a variety of Paralympic events. We made posters which included a title, facts and interesting graphics. When we had finished, we shared our learning with the rest of the class by presenting our posters to them.
When P4 were doing bounce back they looked at social justice. They learned that social justice was about being fair and caring for all people in the world. They discussed the different groups who try to make sure that things are fair for all people. Save the Children was mentioned as well as many other charities.
In writing the children wrote thank you letters to Mrs. Strang for the work that she does for Save the Children and making things fair for children across many countries.
P4 looked at some art work that represented social justice and had an interesting discussion about how they managed this. They then used the visual elements of line, shape, colour and pattern to create their own piece of art work showing the image of a handshake.
Here are two of the letters by Ruby and Rhys.
