SUMMARY:'What’s Beneath Our Feet?' Workshop for Home-Ed Groups at The Sill
DESCRIPTION:Home-educated young people studying at Key Stage 2 level\, and their guardians\, are invited to join The Common Room team at The Sill: National Landscape Discovery Centre\, for a workshop which explores rocks\, fossils and scientific investigation. \nAbout this event\nMining is dangerous work\, with perils always waiting beyond the next strike of a pickaxe. Safely finding your way underground as you dig means being able to read hundreds of millions of years of the Earth’s history from the minerals around you. The Common Room and the Mining Institute (NEIMME) have a history of sharing this knowledge and making underground exploration safe. \nOur ‘What’s Beneath Our Feet?’ workshop links to parts of the National Curriculum relating to rocks and fossils and scientific investigation. Throughout the workshop\, young people are encouraged to develop their scientific skills as they explore and get hands-on with coal\, strata (the layers underneath our feet) and geology specimens from The Common Room’s collection\, as well as linking to the North of England’s rich mining heritage. \nGroups will also be able to visit The Common Room’s Graft & Glory exhibition (currently at The Sill) before or after their workshop. \nGraft & Glory tells the story of our region’s engineers. They invented\, innovated and campaigned to make mining safer\, not only in the North East\, but also around the world. It is the story of our region’s graft and glory: our responses to challenges facing industry\, past\, present and future. \nEvent Timings\nDate: Tuesday 19th October 2021 \nTime: 12:30pm \nWorkshop lasts no longer than 90 minutes \nBooking information\nTo book your free tickets\, please email lucy.stockdale@thecommonroom.org.uk with the number of tickets you require. \nThese workshops are for are ideally suited to those studying at Key Stage 2 level. \nHome Education groups: As capacity is limited due to social distancing measures\, we kindly ask you to limit the number of adults and infants attending with your party if possible and practical.
