20th to 22nd July
We did some problem solving work (having a go a Lemmings on the internet) on Wednesday and also did some more work on our personal topics.
On Thursday we had a day's project in which everyone had to create a short movie showcasing their automaton. We all had a go at using a digital camera to make a short film clip. Then we created our films using a clip of the whole automaton, a close-up clip of the figure moving and a close-up clip of the mechanism. A title page was produced and pages giving further information and a credits page were made. Still pictures of the framework which formed the basis of the automaton could also be included. The results were very impressive.
We had to move out of the computer room on Thursday afternoon and, while this was being done, we watched the film of A series of unfortunate events.
Today the whole school had a video, Ice Age, and some children helped Mr Jennings begin to move things back into our classroom. We also completed our Record of Achievement folders and passed our records on the the teacher who will be teaching the class next year.
