Year 2 Acer - Laptop Learning!

In our Computing this week, we learnt how to use the search engine Kiddle to find flags from around the world. Kiddle is a search engine for kids - much like the well-known Google!

We had to remember our e-safety rules when searching online.

Try using www.kiddle.com at home to search for fun facts!

Then, we used 2 Publish to type text and draw pictures. We learnt how to use the pencil and fill tool, selecting different colours for our pictures. Afterwards, we used the keyboard to type a sentence about the place we had drawn! What a great afternoon of fun learning!

Year 1 (Juniper Class) - Aquatic Animal Design

Juniper Tree Class 

This term we have been planning and researching the best ways to make our own aquariums in Design and Technology. We looked at some ideas by using the internet and thought about what materials would last the longest, look the best and how we would join everything together. 

We created our own design plans and and created a class aquarium before beginning to build our own. 

Note, Develop and Research! Year 5 become researchers...

Year 5 have been learning about the Anglo-Saxons this half term, which required us to use laptops, books, fact files, Ipads and artefacts from our class topic table to explore our topic further for our English learning. 

Today, we carried out research to gather information about Anglo-Saxon life in readiness for writing a non-chronological report. We decided to make notes about a variety of aspects about Anglo-Saxon life, including religion and beliefs, clothing, villages, childhood, jewellery and buildings.
