Four Acres Primary School, Bristol UK

"I chose the theme of recycling due to the school having a recycling theme in
place and my class being responsible for the weekly collection.

As a class, we spoke about what sorts of materials could be recycled, how and why they could be recycled and the effects on the environment. The children then chose their groups of 3 and their material. I explained the screens that could appear on the web site. We talked about how we could go about doing it, using pictures and photos. They were particularly excited about the photos.

The children then researched their material using the internet. They then decided what backgrounds, what scenarios and what comments they wanted to include. They were very excited about showing the three options as photographs and about going to local recycling centres and doing photo role plays. They also enjoyed the idea of the smiley, medium and unhappy faces and the comments that go along with them."
