Our class project
For our living heritage project, our class decided to split into smaller groups of 2-5 students so that everyone could contribute their own ideas. We decided that each group would write about a different topic that related to living heritage, for example, personal migration stories, history of the school, cultures within the school, etc.
Once we had decided on the topics we got to work interviewing our parents and grandparents, our teachers, and fellow pupils. Some students used the internet as an extra source of information. When we had collated all the data and information we wrote drafts and searched for the appropriate pictures.
