Unit question: What are the consequences/is the impact of war on the physical and human environment?
Significant Concept: that war affects the human and natural environment in various ways
Subjects involved: Languages A and B; Humanities, Biology, Chemistry
What will happen?
You will examine the Unit Question and Significant Concept in the various subjects as normal. However, you will also be working in groups towards a presentation to be delivered on June 4th in the MPR. You may choose your own groups (up to 6 pupils per group), and how you wish to present. You may want to be in a group that will work in one subject only, or a group that covers the issue in a range of subjects. For example, a group of 6 Geography students could work together in that subject, or a group of 6 from 5 different subjects could work together (it doesn’t matter if you don’t all study the same subjects) to produce a newspaper or a brochure, covering a range of subjects. Groups should be a mix of cultures and languages.
Examples of presentations: dramatic performance, debate, newspaper, role play, video, propaganda, presentation of scientific data (for and against) game
Each presentation should take no more than 15 minutes. If you decide to do for example, a newspaper, you should have copies available for a display, and should give a brief introduction to what you did.
You will be given time to work in your groups at various occasions during the month in order to prepare the presentation. The criteria you will be marked on will depend on the nature of your presentation, but will include Organization.
