My Secret Superpowers
A lively assembly activity that introduces the notion of how we are all unique.
10 minutes to prepare superhero slideshow; if you’re doing superhero role-play to start, you’ll also need to prepare your own superhero costume!
Finding My Place
A whole-school activity, encouraging rich discussion about family backgrounds and shared histories and cultures as well as exploring the wider world and where we see ourselves in it. It works particularly well at a school fair or other events where parents can get involved.
40-50 minutes to trace a world map outline or the time to source a large, printed world map.
The Living Gallery
By creating a gallery of ‘living sculptures’ for the whole school to interact with, this three-part activity builds anticipation and explores key themes around the Tate Year 3 Project photographer visit. Activities 1 and 2 are done in class with Activity 3 creating a whole-school moment for pupils, teachers and parents.
