Bristol Regeneration Fieldwork Booklet

Bristol Regeneration Fieldwork Booklet

(0)
I included an example of a fieldwork booklet. It is adaptable and sections can be removed depending on how much time you have. This school was huge and they walked around separately as we had 4 buses of students. Since we walked, I was the guide and mentioned all the prices etc. The school is deprived so you need to address misconceptions during evaluation on whether it was successful or not as the students will think these big shops are amazing/ or unaware due to their hometown being small. With a different school, we did the boat tour instead so they were able to easily take photos to annotate, write a lot and complete a full booklet (different to this booklet). In that booklet, the main difference was we added a map of the locations the boat goes and labelled it. Students made notes on each part. The boat tour guide may know some things, otherwise I (and you) know the information already to share. On the boat tour, you’ll see the giant boat that Bristol paid millions to move a few yards down for “regeneration” of the food shops nearby. When walking, we never saw it. Bristol has a lot of history and original butts, cranes etc. in the area which people may not know. Things like vegetation drainage, use of brown field sites etc. I included some information for you in case you are unaware, and some articles. With other schools, they decided to not visit Bristol.

Mindmap Task - success criterion = 2 pieces of evidence per misconception Differentiated tables - so students finish around same time/ have scaffolding Special role - Student envoys - I use students of that religion because they can share their knowledge/ confirm other pupils answers correctly Challenge included Facts reading as a class Reading of a real life person (news) Task - Local, National, International - solutions Adapt to YOUR school name and YOUR town. - highlighted in red on PPT - could include school logo too. Golden rules - create alone/ or as class - religious studies is a sensitive topic as there is science and students of different religions so depending on your school and students - it could be worth mentioning/ creating some or serve as reminders. Note: Catholic schools didn’t need any. Non-catholic schools, I used as a reminder with the behaviour policy as it is considered a serious misbehaviour if there is any discrimination (mixed student background). Usually it’s the wrong term used - so little reminders to use the word “different” rather than “weird” etc.
