Deep Zoom - famine - how does it work?

The video above shows a quick run through of how what the zoom looks like run through.

Picture 1:
The zoom starts off as a random postcard with an unusual stamp in the top right hand corner. Here I ask the students if they can tell me what year the second live aid happened.

Picture 2:

You zoom into the stamp and more specifically the part of the globe from space. I then get the students to guess what country we will be looking at, which is Ethiopia.

Picture 3:

As it zooms in more you can see a picture of a desert in Ethiopia. I get the students to write down to words they would use to describe the desert.

Picture 4:

In the background is a village. I ask the students to compare the houses to their own houses where they live.

Picture 5:

This is the important picture and also a famous one. The photo was taken by Kevin Carter in 1994. It actually refers to the famine in Sudan. The child is crawling towards an United Nations food camp. The vulture is waiting for the child to die. The photo won the Pulitzer prize. Unfortunately Kevin Carter committed suicide three months later as a result of depression. I get the students to write down one question they would like to ask about the picture.

This is the end of the zoom and it had great levels of engagement across all my year seven classes.

Unfortunately I am not sure how to put the file up onto the Internet for people to download.
