Festive Activities II – Connected Falkirk

In December 2024 we launched our newest edition of festive creative activities. These eight fun activities that can be picked up and completed by pupils either in groups or individually and can be used with any age and stage. They are based on Apple’s new Creative Activities for Early Learners/ Students, and aim to to help pupils utilise lots of interesting core apps on their devices in new and creative ways – with a festive twist!

The Challenges

We kicked off the launch of our festive activities with a live lesson for activity one, Seasonal Surveys.

Results

A number of classes kindly shared their results with us so that we could compile them into a ‘Charting the Cheer: A Falkirk Festive Data Compilation’ digital book to celebrate their amazing work. This includes a selection of survey results, creative data visualisations and ‘Me-Trees’, plus a few other excellent examples of results from the other festive activities.
