students are directly linked with this topic because of the material goods they already possess.
Take into consideration ideas and activities from the VESS Modules but also be creative and
imaginary to go beyond the ostensible. Firstly, create a Web presenting your understanding,
ideas and interests on the topic. Connect the topic with your individual classroom and extend
your Web from there. What is appropriate for my age group? What are my students’ interests?
Older students can create their own Web for The Store and this will give to the teachers more
ideas on what to explore during this monthly journey. Extend your Web by making connections
with previous and followings topics. We strongly recommend the collaboration of all the
teachers in order to create a bigger Web where we can share and exchange ideas.
Inquire, reflect upon, innovate and provide activities in an exciting interesting, and fun
way. Always remember to set clear goals and objectives, set high expectations, and take
advantage of the opportunities. Always ask questions, challenge students and never limit their
thoughts. There is always time to think and elaborate our thoughts. Let your and yours students’
imagination fly. There are a lot to learn from ‘The Store.’
Enjoy the monthly journey ☺
