Literacy and ICT - The Seaside

We started our seaside topic today by making our own stories about the seaside using the 2-Publisher software on 'Purple Mash'. We made sure our stories had a beginning middle and end and tried to include our VCOP skills we have been learning over the year. Here some of us are using the mini laptops to make our stories...

Disney Animations!

Today we were making our own Disney animations using the 2simple animations software on Purple Mash. We had lots of fun designing the slides and watching them come together as a short film...I couldn't upload them all but here are a few!!

 

 

 

 

Using Purple Mash on our 'Class Mates' to represent our Pirate data!!

Today we were having a go at representing data on pirates using our 'Class Mate' mini laptops to go on purple mash and record our data. Purple mash was very clever how it converted our data into different types of graphs and charts and we then used these to analyse our data.

Log on to purple mash at home and make up so data to input and practise!!

Instructional texts!!

Over the past couple of weeks we have been practising our skills at writing instructions. We have had a go at many activities, writing instructions for our own marvellous medicine, writing instructions for Florence Nightingale and the Scutari hospital, recording our instructions to look after the poorly teddy and lots of other instructions!!

Our learning logs were also to write a set of instructions and I have been so impressed with the skills and range of instructions you have chosen to tell me about! Look out for the photos coming soon!!
