The first thing we did at Pumphie Pals was to identify which jobs and careers require skills and knowledge for each of the STEM areas.

Fairtrade Kahoot!
Primary 7 used Kahoot to assess their knowledge of Fairtrade, following our Pumphie Pals meeting on Friday. Kahoot is an app/ website that allows the children to interact with questions on the board using the iPads. We were very impressed with how accurately they could answer the questions. You can see from their faces how engaged they were!
