Unfortunately I was unable to attend the farm trip but from my peers I heard that they were taught a lot of useful information on farming. This is a trip that I experienced first hand as a primary student and I think it is a great idea  for a school trip. They visited  two farms which are complete opposite, I feel this would be appropriate for a school class as it allows the children to give their own opinion on both farms and tell you the differences or similarities. After the visit, it could be moved further to the children creating a presentation on the differences between the farms and which farm they prefer. For the lower school, this could be made into an art project. Children could make paintings or models of what they seen at the farm, with a written explanation of what they made.

In the second workshop we were given a group task, we were asked to work in groups to create a poster on fishing in Scotland:

• Biodiversity
• Economy and Industry
• Community Impact
• Political elements

As this is a topic I had no knowledge, I had no idea what to expect. In our groups, we were given different websites and youtube videos to watch. We picked out the main facts of these to do with the four aspects in order to make our prezi poster. https://create.piktochart.com/infographic/saved/25439909# This activity allowed us to build on not only our team working skills but researching and summarising skills. This type of activity would be a good to use in the upper school as a researching task for their topic work. It allows them to be creative in making their own work through the use of technology. This could be done in a group or individually in a classroom setting.
