S2 have been working on the Newspaper project which saw them learn about the world of journalism and culminated in them writing their own newspaper report.
We are now moving on to experience our own TOP Summit. (Taylor’s Official Project). Students will be learning about climate change and what we can do to prevent it. Through engaging with documentaries, speeches and research students will grasp an understanding of the issues before choosing one area to research and present on. This project will allow students to develop their research skills as well as their ability to work with others in their group before the presentation which allows developement of the talking and listening skills.
Before delivering presentations the children will study Milestone Two having completed Milestone One in S1. Talking Milestones is a programme which develops the skills necessary to present to audiences. The programme starts in S1 and moves through the curriculum to Higher with students learning new skills with each new milestone.
We are excited about this new unit of work and the young people seem to be too. Prepare to learn all about recycling and clean energy once they come home.
