Colleagues
Naace has received this request for ICT teaching ideas for DCSF magazines.
Because of you know what in Blackpool, we've no time to collate your ideas,
so please respond directly to Mealanie, but do mention Naace.
By all means share your ideas on Naacetalk too. I'm sure members acting
collectively can generate a year's worth of teaching and learning ideas
Thanks
Paul

Hi Bernadette
I'm the editor of the DCSF magazines Primary Teachers and Secondary Teachers
and wonder if you can help me quickly with a page of World Cup related
teaching ideas that we're putting together for our May issue? I know it's
your conference this week, but I'd be really grateful if you could...
I'm hoping Naace can provide me with one great World Cup-based ICT activity
idea for primary and one for secondary that we could include, which our
readers could then adapt themselves to use in class/tutor time etc.
We're looking for a short paragraph of instructions explaining the activity
(60 words or so) in very practical terms, eg "show the pupils this specific
YouTube clip, then divide the class into groups and get each group to
discuss the issues...".
Here's an example from the recent resources we did to tie in with the
upcoming general election:
POLITICAL FIGURES Ask pupils to research their MP, local councillor and MEP
on the internet. Split the class into groups of six. Ask each child to
suggest an issue (for example, 'there are not enough police on the streets')
and get the group to decide whether it is a local, national or international
concern. Did some groups come to different conclusions with similar issues?
Ask the class to write to their headteacher, MP, councillor or MEP
expressing their opinions.
Do you think this would be possible? I'm afraid we're on a tight deadline,
so it would be great if you could possibly get back to me with the ideas by
this Friday... Let me know if this sounds ok.
Many thanks
Melissa
