| Summary: | In Year 5 at Lent Rise School Kirsten Paveley has planned a science lesson about the muffling properties of certain materials. Her class will be working largely in pairs to explore the sound proofing qualities of different materials that she has prepared earlier. She talks through the week's planning with her headteacher Brenda Bigland and her co-year teacher Tamsin Hindley. After Kirsten delivered her lesson she felt that she should have encouraged her class to think more laterally about other materials and not rely on the selection she had provided but she felt, overall, it went well. Her colleague Tamsin Hindley has planned a very lively lesson about the interpretation of gestures and how they mean different things in different countries. Her class is encouraged to illustrate these ways of communicating using digital cameras, MP3 players and other technological gizmos, with the intention of sending the resulting work to their twinned school in Romania.
