2004 Winning Entry - Greasbrough School
Three year 6 pupils from this Lancashire School researched their own project. They created a delightful "big book" for display with pockets
for antiqued "journals" by the first excavators, and a power point show on CD. The book presented these topics; Mohenjo-daro,
Leisure Time, Jewellery, Animal bones, Agriculture, Transport, Rulers, Religion, the Decline of the Indus Valley, and the First Excavations.
The children created a great resource for the class, or school to use in future. The creators could use A project like this could be part of an interactive class museum ! post-its to write multiple choice questions with answers underneath. Other children could stick on comments or questions.
Add questions inviting children to build on inferences, and make more general hypotheses or conclusions!Mouseover children's text for feedback and questions arising from their extensive research and thoughtful inferences. m
