We have begun a new Global Citizenship topic based on the UNCRC and Global Goal 12; Responsible Consumption and Production.
We worked with P6/7 to create wordles based on this theme, as well as watching some inspirational videos to inspire us to create change. After all, future generations need to know how to live sustainably. As part of our homework, we have been asked to research different landscapes in order to design and build our own community for the storyline.
We have been very active so far in Term 3. We decided that we would like to do Rounders and Cricket for our Outdoor PE slot, and Tennis/Badminton when we are indoors. We have been cycling when the sun has popped it’s head out to play, and on Friday, we went to Holyrood High School to partake in a Burns Transition Ceilidh! What fun!
Here’s some snaps of us in action!
We have been learning more about Filmmaking. Firstly, we brainstormed our prior knowledge on this theme, proving that we are already aware of lots of different ways to record digitally through applications, techniques and styles. We are entering a DTMM competition in March, which is all based on the theme of ‘Community’. We discussed in small groups how we could explore this idea; short movies, documentaries, animation, silent movies, paper cinema, cartoons etc.
We played fun warm up games to get us thinking like directors and actors. We played the tweet challenge, the three sound challenge and the 5,4,3,2,1 movie challenge!
