This half term Year 3 have been learning all about animation in our Learning Means The World theme ‘That’s All Folks’. We were very fortunate to have a visit from Mr. Robert from the OpenZone who taught the children how to create animations using iPads. The children used a form of animation that we have been learning about which was Stop-Motion animation. They had a great day and created some amazing animations!
We have been busy bees in Reception today. Exploring, making new friends and physical fun Friday outside in the sun!
Year 4 have shown themselves be experts with computer networks. They have created their own version of an internal computer network. Well done!
We have launched our first theme of the year, which is based all around COMMUNICATION. During assembly the children found out how meerkats communicate with each other. Did you know that they take it in turns to watch out for predators and when everything is ok they make a low constant peeping known as ‘The Watchman’s song’? If a predator is spotted the guard alerts the others with a bark or a whistle.
People have been communicating with each other throughout the whole of human history, but how we communicate with each other has changed massively over the last 30 years.
We are going to be investigating all sorts of weird and wonderful ways of communicating in our new theme.
