Digital Story-telling aka Virtual Reality?

Welcome back to our last term of school in 2012.


This term we are going to focus on bringing our ICT skills together in the form of digital storytelling. The children have been writing about their holidays, and using google docs and google presentations, as well as the App of Puppet Pals to illustrate their writing. Check out the photos below. If you have missed out on a photo opportunity - never fear! Your child is quite happy to create their own memory. 


 Look at this dare devil! What an awesome swing.


 Is this Alice in Wonderland?

 Ooh! That lamb is so cute? How did she manage to get up so close?

 Wow! These girls had at the whole cinema to themselves!


Look at these two and their beautiful horse - and on their own piece of paradise!

Finishing Fair Testing

Wow! What a great topic this has been. The children have been fabulously engaged - asking amazing questions, designing new experiments, as well as conducting precise tests. Well done, everyone.
To complete our work we sorted the experiments we had conducted into Fair Tests - those with variables we altered - and what we described as Experimental Tests. The children were very impressive in their knowledge.
Look for some great explanation writing appearing on blogs soon.

We have enjoyed some expert cricket coaching this afternoon. Perfect after a wet lunch time.
