India

Year 9 looked at India this week. With several people absent they worked with people they didn’t usually and produced some good work. They learned a little about the size, major cities, currency and language before taking part in an activity which challenged a few stereotypes about what India might look like. Dorcas who led this activity was very impressed by their thoughtfulness and the way in which they could articulate their views. Yvonne then introduced the students to the Comic Life programme which they used to create posters advertising India and encouraging more people to visit. They demonstrated good ICT skills and produced some very creative posters. Finally they heard a little about and tasted Bombay Mix or chevda – a savoury, spicy Indian snack.
