Workshop Summary
This is a great workshop if you want to start a local study project with your class. You will start by investigating a range of items that may include Maps, Plans, Photographs and other records from Tyne and Wear Archive, chosen by you, your class or carefully selected by out learning staff. This will give your class the starting point to develop your own Local enquiry. Your class will have the opportunity to explore the museum to further investigate the theme drawn out from your Archive research. To aid your class’s study they will use Tablet Computers through out the sessions to record what they find from the archive and in the museum.
