We need a new ride for Paultons Park and we need your help! Our cross-curricular session ‘Theme Park Creator’ is perfect for schools running topics around theme parks and includes a range of ideas and activities back at class. Your session looks at how we choose new rides, the research process and most importantly the target audience. Children are then guided to plan a ride based on research information given to them. With strong literacy links, children are then challenged to consider theming and a short marketing ‘blurb’ to help sell the ride to the general public. This session fits perfectly with a longer Theme Park unit of work and we offer a Dropbox of resources to support the topic back in class. 

 Learning Objectives:

  • Explore market research
  • Analyse data and use this information to plan a design
  • Create a design with specific features
  • Use persuasive language and advertising strategies
