ICT sessions with Mrs Mewett
The children have been doing really well this term learning lots of skills and accessing a variety of programs.
Firstly, they are getting soooooo much better at finding letters on the keyboard, they love the games on Purple Mash Two Type, if you have internet connection then let them show you these!
We have been using a lot of programs on
Purple Mash to draw and write about houses and our homes, creating our poppies, writing poems, even to decorate a 3D printable house! Again, all can be accessed from home too! If your child logs on using their password you can also look at their saved work.
The children have also been working on becoming familiar with
Blu Camera software which is a storyboard scenario which they can drag different shapes, moving items, sounds onto, then clip all slides together to make a rolling program. They work in pairs on this with Mrs Dukes.
Lastly, we have been navigating around some simulation websites such as
Poisson Rouge. This is a lovely site and has so much to explore and find. I have placed this onto the Year 1 links under ICT if again they wish to access this at home?
If your child does anything fab using ICT outside of school then please let me/us know as this information is really useful in ensuring all children are being met with their ICT needs. Thursday morning is a good time to catch me in the ICT suite!
Thank you
Mrs Mewett
