After looking at the tools and ideas in Module 1, I can really see how teaching aquaculture and Social License could work well in a primary classroom. These topics link in nicely with subjects like SESE and SPHE and give children the chance to learn about real life issues in a fun and interesting way.
Using things like videos, maps, games and role play, pupils can learn how fish farming works and how it affects people, the environment and local communities. They can take on the roles of fishermen/women scientists or local families and start to see different points of view. This helps them think about fairness, looking after nature and how people make decisions together.
It also gives children the chance to work in groups, ask questions and share ideas. Most of all, it helps them become more aware of the world around them and shows them how their choices can make a difference.
