Education
Two schools across three sites local to the Magdalen Tower were involved in the development of the education resources. Russell Street School and St Mary and St Giles (both North and South sites) had full day sessions, including an assembly for the whole school, a visit to the Tower and then focused sessions in class based on the visit to the Tower.
Russell Street School opted for an exploration of the Gargoyles, and to make their own.
St Mary and St Giles chose to become time detectives, finding facts and putting the pieces of the puzzle to create their best guess to solve the history mysteries that surround the Tower.
The resources used for the Magdalen Tower Project includes session plans, Powerpoint presentations, and images of some of the work created by the pupils involved with the original project. These resources can be used to create a cross curricula project based upon the Tower and Stony Stratford, or as stand-alone class sessions. Click on the images below to download the files.
