Precedent Lesson 8/10/09

"If we had all of these things in our school we would be a reet school..." (Nicky, Yr 8)
Our second lesson with the pupils went well. This week we started the lesson by presenting them with a slideshow of examples of what could be achieved in a classroom. We asked them to order them on our "cool wall" (renamed the wonderwall) into categories we had defined based on what came out of the last lesson. These categories were: Colour/light, Variety, Activity, Comfort, Crazy and Everything else. This part of the class went really well with the pupils responding really well to it. There was a real air of disappointment around the room when we came to the end of the slideshow! We also got some really useful feedback from them about each slide and what they thought was important in each image and what they liked and didn't like.


The cool wall was then assembled onto boards ready to be put up in the school, along with comments cards. Hopefully the rest of the school and staff will get involved and let us know what they want and don't want. We've placed the responsibility on our class to start spreading the word, getting their friends and family involved. Hopefully the word will spread from there.

Next we split into our seperate groups, focusing on colour, position and places that make us feel certain things.
