In Aspire lessons this week Year 7 have begun to build up their ‘learning skills toolkit’.

In one group they learnt what a mind map was and how this can be a very useful learning tool.  The pupils spent some time designing a mind map about themselves, during this time they had the opportunity to choose a style of mind map they were comfortable with and decide what information they wanted to include.  Here are some of their mind maps created during the lesson.
