Sustainable Table - Large versus small scale dairy farming
Lesson3 of 3 in this unit
SecondaryYear 9 - 10TechnologyDesign and TechnologiesEnvironmentalLand ManagementSustainabilityEconomicIndustry, Innovation and Infrastructure
Lesson Summary
In this activity students will start by watching two clips; one on intensive dairy farming practices and another on small scale organic dairy farming. Students are asked to reflect on these clips by working in groups to create a dairy farm of the future. Students do this by using the ‘thinking hats’ learning tool, brainstorming initial ideas and then using these ideas to create a model of a future dairy farm.
Learning intentions
Students will:
- make judgments on the ethical and sustainable management of dairy farms
- recognise that they have the skills and knowledge to create their own vision for the future
- understand that different people have different ideas about what the future should look like but that these differences can be used to give strength to the vision and its meaning.
Success criteria
Students can:
- watch and reflect on videos
- contribute to class discussions
- participate in a role play activity
- work collaboratively.
