Critical Thinking linked to World Cup Mascots

This morning Primary 7  have been doing some critical thinking about the World Cup Mascots from 1966 England's Willie to 2014 Brazil's Fuleco.

We had to consider a range of questions and discuss answers and justify reasons for our answers. 

"I thought my group worked well together.  We discussed our ideas but overall we were in agreement with each other and were able to present our arguments in a clear and consise way."  Niamh

 

 

 

 

These are the points we had to consider:

Which one is the most colourful? Odd One Out? Connect neighbours by shared feature.
Which are your favourite 3 and why?
Which mascot would make the best/worst pupil / teacher and why?
If you had to take parts of 4 mascots to make a new one, which mascots would you choose and why?
