Designed for Years 1-7 ‘Investigator’ bags are available in the Djanogly Art Gallery and contain art materials appropriate to each exhibition, with questions to encourage children to really look at the art. Whole classes may use these bags, through our provision of extra clipboards and activity sheets.
Outdoor & Museum Investigators (in development) We are developing resource packs to enable children to explore the natural environment around the lake and woodlands of Highfields Park in which Lakeside is situated. Activity sheets will help the children identify flora and fauna and creative tasks encourage them to experience outdoor learning in an enjoyable, hands-on way. Similarly work is being progressed on Museum packs in readiness for the new Museum in 2012.

Travelling Exhibitions Everyday Life in Margidunum is a travelling exhibition based on the local site of Roman Margidunum (at Bingham in Nottinghamshire), and includes original artefacts as well as replicas of objects in the Museum. It contains suggestions for activities suitable for Years 1-7, and for children with special needs.
Online Resources from Manuscripts and Special Collections ’Schools Resources’ currently offer two themes which focus on Key Stage 3 and GCSE. They contain suggested lesson plans based around studying full-size digital images of original documents. ’Research Guidance’ provides images, information and quizzes about original sources and key skills, including the use of archives, historic dating systems, and pre-metric weights and measures. You can download these and other online content from the Manuscripts and Special Collections web pages.
Teachers’ Packs for Theatre Performances Many of our visiting companies provide education packs to accompany their touring shows. They contain background information and ideas for classroom activities to complement your visit to Lakeside. We also produce our own packs. You can download our most recent packs from our website. Examples are: Them with Frozen Tails; And the Rain Falls Down; Romeo and Juliet; and Lost and Found.
