Year 8 – Zionist Dreams and Dreamers
Daphna Levin-Kahn – Head of Jewish Studies High School
For the Zionist Dreams and Dreamers unit this term, we focused on the Deep Learning Capability of “Collaboration” as well as the Design Process. Following research tasks on Zionist Ideologies and Zionist Founding Leaders and Thinkers, students collaborated to plan, design, prototype, test, evaluate and improve their game designs that would teach and test the other Year 8 students on their Zionist knowledge. The games were fun and offered a diverse range such as Game of Zionist Life, Zionism Cluedo, Minecraft games, matching games and even Zionism Escape Rooms!
Thanks to Sophie Poisel, our Primary Innovation Expert, for helping guide many of our students through the collaborative design process!
Well done to all the students for engaging with the project and developing such enjoyable games!
