Thinking lesson!

Middle school are improving their understanding of democracy. They are exploring the history of the word 'demokratia,' and other forms of government including autocracy, plutocracy and aristocracy.

They are developing their understanding of key words including policy, parliamentary, direct democracy, legislation, egalitarian and majority voting.

Design

Middle school were finishing up their design projects and presenting their work this week. They were also working on some online evaluations of the project and the team work process.

Twopence Dramas

We have been studying a dramatised version of Twopence to Cross the Mersey, a true story about the living conditions and family life of Helen Forrester in Liverpool during the Great Depression. Today, the class performed short dramas they had prepared about how people coped with the lack of money. It was also history day today, so you'll notice the great costumes the pupils are wearing!
