 * __The Visit__

The intention is to car share and park at the Ice Arena and then walk to the The Deep. A guided tour has been booked for 11am. Prior to any school trip a pre-visit is essential for preparation of resources before and after the event. It allows staff to focus on the children's learning experience and ensure the welfare ofthe children during the event. Collect digital images as the visit progresses from beginning to end. You can use your own camera or borrow one of the Unit's cameras.**

__**Key Points**__

 * Remember you are not allowed to use flash settings inside the Deep. Tell the story of the visit. Experiment and look for the unusual shot. You might follow a theme - colour, camouflage, diversity etc**.

__Post Visit__
Images with Captions for a classroom display Worksheet(s) Calendar Information Cards Treasure Hunt - identification cards PowerPoint or IWB presentation Digital Storytelling Pattern cards for inspiring art projects An image album for the children to use in their work.**
 * Immediately after the visit we will return to the Unit and, time permitting, transfer your images to your own storage and onto our server. One of your portfolio tasks is to create and evaluate a resource so, again if time permits, we can 'mindshower' ideas for resources using the images. Don't forget the secondary images. Ideas might include**
 * A pre-visit brochure - using Word or Publisher

You might want to upload you images to [|flickr] and share with the group. You could start to make resources.
