Welcome to H1

Topic Description - Autumn (2) 2019

HUMAN (Humanities and Art) In our first learning expedition pupils are going to explore the question "what makes a community?" This will be facilitated through local visits to discover new information about Barnsley and links with the local paper and MP. Pupils will explore the history and geography of Barnsley but will also consider current affairs such as changes in the demographic of our town and what does the future hold? We will also use this opportunity to consider aspects of PHSE and citizenship, such as the rights and responsibilities of citizens and exploration of the range of nationalities and religious beliefs that are represented in Barnsley. STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Maths) In our first STEAM expedition we will consider the question "what am I made of". This will be an opportunity to look at some of the fundamentals concepts in Biology - cells and levels of organisation and the relationship between structure and function in biological organisms. We will make physical and digital models to demonstrate our understanding of the anatomy of the human body. We will also use this opportunity to consider aspects of personal wellbeing such as lifestyle, habits of mind and character traits such as positive mind-set.
