Assemblies - April 2008
Assemblies will be presented as PowerPoint presentations with the accompanying Word document
"The information in the word documents is written, largely, in simple English which gives presenters the opportunity to stamp their own personality on the presentation and to adapt the information to their own speaking style."
"The PowerPoint slides, signified by the abbreviation Ppt and then followed by the relevant number, are designed to be displayed alongside the sections indicated."
"Regarding the follow-up sections, Further Reading, Viewing, Listening etc. This information is given for inclusion on the school website with pupils being told about its presence. It provides a great opportunity for them to learn more about the subject matter at the core of the assembly - the weblinks particularly providing rich sources of information."

Picasso Guernica
(Added 28/4/08)
This is a great assembly for Art, Politics, History and, due to the highly interpretive nature of the work, English, too. It’s quite a long assembly, so feel free to cut where you think applicable. If you want to focus on the art, lose a bit of the war material. If you want to focus on the history, reign in the art. If you want to cover both, cut & trim where you think applicable, or just go for the whole assembly!
