Resources
WEDG resources are FREE for loan by our members. We have an extensive range of books (fiction and non-fiction), photo packs, DVD and video packs, games and artefacts. Our resources are updated on a regular basis.
What are artefacts?
WEDG artefacts are objects like clothes, utensils and musical instruments. Some are special, perhaps for religious purposes; some are everyday items. See below for our artefact boxes.
Here are just some of the themes we cover:
Individual countries, scarce resources, Fairtrade, cultural stories, transport, religions, food, rights and responsibilities, Citizenship, everyday life
