  11. The preparatory visit • Identify the materials, displays and resources that are relevant to your chosen topic. • Consider a) what aspect of your topic might be taught through a visit to the centre and b) what activities or tasks you could use to do this. • Devise a structured activity that you would use to achieve your purpose. This should include: • Clear learning objectives, linked back to the National Curriculum or exam syllabus. • Instructions for the core activity • Some element of differentiation • An imaginative way of assessing the learning outcomes (think pictures, posters, models, quizzes etc. not just writing).
