End of year assembly slides

Wednesday 16th Jul, 2008 by Amy Stock

As mentioned on the community blog, I did an assembly this week using a couple of very simple slides for an end of term assembly, but I thought I’d post them up here just in case they’re useful for anyone or inspire other thoughts. They include questions for students to use in reflecting back on their year that is just finishing.

Eating Disorders

Wednesday 9th Jul, 2008 by Chris Curtis

image Here’s an ad aimed at older teens in Scandanavia, looking at the issue of eating disorders. Although it’s short, I think it could be useful as part of presentations or lessons on this topic, as a discussion starter. You can view the ad in quicktime here.

Animoto

Thursday 3rd Jul, 2008 by Amy Stock

This looks great. Animoto is a web application that allows you to create great looking movie trailers and music videos, just by uploading photos and selecting some music. If you’re not up to speed on your final cut pro or don’t have hours to research movie editing for your next assembly, why not visit this site....it does it all for you!!

Friendship Assembly

Wednesday 18th Jun, 2008 by Amy Stock

This is a great story from Tony Buck who posted this on the community blog a few months ago. A presentation in keynote, powerpoint and quicktime formats has now been added to complete the resource.

Ever been given that age old assembly topic of friendship? I’ve used this story in lots of schools with very positive results. I came across this in the resource section of Youthwork Magazine, summer 2006 - I tied it in with the football world cup in Germany. I shared this story with some of the other schools workers at the youthwork conference early day this year.

Responding to suffering

Monday 2nd Jun, 2008 by Amy Stock

Here is an outline of a lesson a schoolsworker in Luton recently did for a Yr.11 group. It worked really well with the particular group she was working with, and this one is the third in the series of three lessons. I will also get the first one up as soon as!

Shoulder to Shoulder

Monday 2nd Jun, 2008 by Amy Stock

Earlier on this year, Tearfund and Scripture Union joined forces to develop a brilliant resource aimed at school Christian groups. It has been developed to help those groups raise money to fight HIV around the world.
