Mixed Stage Learning Fair trade

Roaming reporters are Jace and Aidan

In our school we are mixing in different classes to do Fair trade IDL. We are making a design on a T-Shirt template in groups. The winning group gets their design on a real T-Shirt made from Fair Trade cotton.  The winner gets decided by people in the class by vote.

This is the winning groups design.

Here they are putting it into their fair-trade cotton T-Shirt.

Primary 1 are having lots of visitors to explain the variety of jobs they do and why they enjoy their career.

We learned about different sports from a PE teacher ;hockey, rugby, badminton, basketball, netball. We practised a side pass for rugby.
Annabelle modelled how to pass the baton without dropping it. We didn’t drop the baton or the rugby ball!

Aaron using his sense of taste to identify different foodstuffs….sour jellies and sweet Fair Trade banana

Callum was up for the challenge to his taste buds…..sweet chocolate and sour lemon juice…
Callen tried sweet, sour and ice cold! Paige used her sense of smell, taste and touch to identify apple, salt and vinegar crisps.
Jacob and Thomas making Fair Trade smoothies. Hamish deciding on ingredients and measuring amounts.
P1 used  a variety of berries, avocado, banana and fruit juices or milk/yoghurt to make super smoothies. Cheers!
P1 investigated a box of smells…from roses to coffee and lavender to cinnamon…we had to guess what the smell was!
