At Calderwood, our pupils get autonomy over what they want to learn. We try to ensure we listen and follow along with what they find interesting.

We decided we would learn about Oceans. Through our planning meeting, we looked at different sub-topics and thought about what we already knew and what we wanted to find out more about:
This week, we looked at where the worlds ocean were and used Google Earth to locate, name and label different Ocean Areas and seas. Mural allows us to work collaboratively on the same document. We used technology, map skills and research skills to complete our geography challenge.
We also found out that the river closest to Calderwood is the River Almond and it runs into the North Atlantic Ocean.
We think we did a great job at our first attempt – what do you think? Spot any mistakes?
We are looking forward to exploring more about ore world’s ocean as we move forward through the term.
