On display in the classroom this afternoon there was a photo gallery of famous and significant people. Students looked closely at them to see if they recognised them. Some pupils thought they had seen faces on coins before, some recognised an artist and Alana recognised Einstein!
We discussed the meaning of being famous and being significant, which is not an easy concept to grasp! Students brainstormed famous people they knew - but are they also significant people? Sometimes yes, sometimes no!
Together we used keywords to find out on the internet who some of the significant people in our gallery are - we found Warhol, Gaudi, Kahlo and da Vinci. We still have some more faces on our wall - who are they??!!
