Race Relations Act

At Taddington, we are always mindful of the Pyramid of Learning and how pedagogy affects the probability of children retaining what they have learnt. On Monday, Giraffes learnt about the Race Relations Act. We read and discussed this together whilst each making notes and prompts in-line with our own learning styles. Together on the board we created a journey represented by symbols, dates and key words as prompts. We then reviewed our learning, focusing only on the key points. Finally, everybody was given 60 seconds to teach their partner everything that they had learnt about the Race Relations Act and the impact this had for black people in Britain.

Enjoying a welcome snack break, we listened and watched out for curlews, skylarks, blackbirds, buzzards and crickets.  We spotted many wild flowers too.

We listened carefully before getting our harnesses on.  The instructor checked we were all safely buckled up and ready to go. Hmm...some slightly worried looks.  Here we go. Who's brave enough to go first? The bridge over the River Wye is 80 feet high and the first challenge is to climb over the railings.  We did it!  Now we can relax.
