Higher Modern Studies were presenting to the class their research into smoking and alcohol as causes of Health Inequalities. Some excellent statistics gathered, as well as, data to link these to our other factors.

It’s Magpie week at St Modan’s! Period 6 I managed to visit other classes across the school and see some excellent practice. Gems I am taking back include the use of visualisers, celebrating success through stars of the week and some ideas for cross-faculty links 😊

Thank you to WWF UK for sharing our certificate today for the work our faculty has been doing with S1 to create our Forest of Promises. #COP26

Higher Modern Studies were asked to create a visual representation of the key causes of health inequalities. They then toured the classroom to identify the causes displayed by each group. Getting essay ready!

2R2 were investigating the methods used by the Nazis during the 1930’s to create a climate of fear and intimidation. They had to work as a team to collect 6 facts about the SS and the Gestapo. StMSocial

S4 Modern Studies were demonstrating their knowledge of the role of our MSPs through creating visual displays. The other pupils had to identify the role being displayed as they took a tour of the classroom. StMSocial

Higher Modern Studies pupils were using paper plates to visualise their essay plan. They identified their key factors and gathered knowledge and analysis points they will want to use from their class notes/google classroom and textbook. StMSocial

As part of Careers Week S1 Social Subjects and Higher Modern Studies pupils were using My World of Work to research some careers linked to these subjects, the key skills required and discussed how we have been developing these skills in class. #careersweek

S2 Social Subjects were using My World of Work to find out about careers and key skills developed for the world of work through studying a Social Subject. St Modan's Eco and other exciting stuff #ScotCareersWeek

National 5/Higher Modern Studies pupils take note ——>

S2 Modern Studies have been comparing life in the USA to here in the UK. They selected to look at either health inequalities, education inequalities, political participation or the political system. Lots of interesting questions being asked 💻🇺🇸🇬🇧

Higher Modern Studies pupils - take note 📝

It’s great to be part of this initiative and the training today.

Thank you to our wonderful S6 students who organised a "been there, done that" subject fayre for S4 today. Amazing 👏

Our Pupil Council and Class Captains met today to learn about our schools journey towards becoming a Rights Respecting School. It was lovely to see so many were keen to become part of the new RRSA Steering Group. Keep an eye out for more from this group #RRSA UNICEF UK

Great example of the inter-relationship between our Social Subjects - S2 have been looking at multi-nationals like Siemens as part of their Business unit following their look at USA politics last month and the role of the President.

Good luck to all out N5 and Higher Modern Studies pupils tomorrow 🤞🍀 Pre-exam breakfast on in the FLA.
