Differentiation
Pupils needing extra support:
Year 5: Give the opportunity to re-watch the clip if necessary and to pause it when they hear something that they think is important. Can use the Activity: Pledge template to support writing their pledges.
Year 6: Can select a form of stereotyping of which they have an understanding and a type of media that they will find easy to work with, such as video or podcasts.
Pupils working at greater depth:
Year 5: Could move on to look at ways they could make changes beyond their class, for example within the wider life of the school or the local community.
Year 6: Can be challenged to undertake greater research into their campaign and give real-life examples.
