Helen Edmondson has sent some further excellent resources to support the above. Helen has created some mystery cards and a frame to help pupils organise the information. She used this idea for our Y8 intake taster lesson - starting with a bit of information and then the first Easter isalnd movie(they were fascinated and really scared!). Helen then used her own movie (below) to give them a bit of help half-way through the task.
