Element Six: In Reality

In this element, you will engage with the design and resources from different project examples.  

Expected Duration: 30 - 60 minutes
Type: Synchronous


Element Six
Vertical Divider
This section contains examples of projects that we have designed and completed in different settings. They are here to stimulate thinking and ideas.

There are detailed design plans and examples for the following.
  • Single Steps Learning Project: Avast! Big Mack Needs Help! (In Person Project with Primary 1/2)
  • Single Steps Learning Project: The Iconic Structures of Europe (In-Person Project with P5)
  • Single Steps Learning Project: From Here To There (In-Person Project with P7)

In addition, we have included links to our further project websites for different age groups and contexts. 
​
 You may want to take a look at each of them to get an overview, or you may want to focus on one in more detail. 

The main aim is to collect authentic examples to inform and inspire as you reflect on the connections and opportunities for your project design in OHR Primary School.

Avast! Big Mack Needs Help!: 4-5 year olds


Context: This project took place over an 8-day period with Primary One (Reception). There were 50 children in one shared base. We were in the base for the whole of each day. There were 2 teachers full-time. Twice a week, a classroom assistant joined for the afternoon. 

Important: The video was initially recorded for a previous training event. We have decided to include it as it gives a useful overview to the Padlet Design below. Towards the end, it briefly refers to Section 5 of the Training Website - this is the only part that is not relevant to you. 

Made with Padlet

The Iconic Structures of Europe: 8-9 years old

Context: This project took place over a split 2-week period with 2 classes. The first week happened in August, with the second week in November. Each class had 30 children and a class teacher. We spent 1/2 day in each class - rotating mornings and afternoons. This enables any specific daily literacy/numeracy (etc) to happen during the 1/2 day session that we are not there. ​

From Here To There: 10-12 year olds


​Context: This project took place over a 2 week period with 2 classes. Each class had 30 children and a class teacher. We spend 1/2 day in each class - rotating mornings and afternoons. This enables any specific daily literacy/numeracy (etc) to happen during the 1/2 day session that we are not there. 


NB: The video was initially recorded for a previous training event. We have decided to include it as it gives a useful overview to the Padlet Design below.
