Fairtrade Family Challenge – Competition Time!!

Leave a comment

Competition Time!!!!

Watch the video linked here ‘Guardians of the Rainforest’: https://schools.fairtrade.org.uk/resource/guardians-of-the-rainforest/

It follows the life of a boy named Beshey who lives and farms in the Gola Rainforest . If you are in P1-3 you could ask an adult to sit with you and help you take notes.  If you are P4-7 try to take notes on your own whilst watching the video.

What do you see in the Gola Rainforest?

How does Beshey live and farm?

Where does he live?

Your task this week is to create a picture of the rainforest/visualizer from what you have learned from Beshey living in Gola. Try to put in as much detail as you can. You can label your drawing.

We will be looking for the most creative and detailed drawings and visualizers.

This is a competition so do your best!!

Ask an adult to upload your pictures to the blog as a reply to this post. We will judge as a staff and a winner from each stage will be given a certificate and house points.

Have fun!! Remember to use the video to help create your picture/ visualizer.

CLOSNG DATE FOR ENTRIES – Monday 4th May 2020

Please send entries to : rmeimaroglou@chapelgreen.n-lanark.sch.uk

Family Learning Challenges

 

We know how hard it can be when you have more than one child working on different things during the course of the week. To try to address this and to perhaps help ease some of the difficulties, we have developed some family learning challenges.

These challenges reflect the work we have started in school and work that had been planned as part of our pupil committees, assemblies and curricular developments this term.

We will issue these challenges once a week and we would love to encourage you and your child/ren to participate together. This work can be completed in place of a piece of topic work and the class teachers will adjust their weekly planning to reflect this.

As we have a wide range of ages within our school, we will provide a choice of two tasks within the challenge for most weeks. You can, however, choose the task which you feel is most appropriate for you and your family. (Or just the one you like the sound of most!)

Certificates and points to be won for the weekly challenge winners

This week’s challenge follows our Fairtrade theme and will be posted on the school blog shortly.

As always, if you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact.

Hope you are continuing to stay safe and well.

Mrs Savva
