So I’ve been really lucky with the pre-service teachers I’ve been assigned – they are generally ready for the classroom, but more importantly, they don’t mind team-teaching some fun stuff.
The latest has been Year 9 WWI playdough concepts and events. Teams were assigned topics from militarism to the Gallipoli landing. They had a variety of materials available – the main one being homemade cooked playdough.
Here’s some of the progress shots:
In addition to the models, the students had to compose a paragraph to accompany their display for our ‘Classroom Museum’ exhibition on WWI. They’ll be displayed alongside the models and posters from classwork earlier in the term. By the end of the term we’ll have a series of podcasts and videos to add to our exhibition.
I love my 9s, and my praccy.
