21st to 23rd May
We have continued enjoying our Arts Week. On Wednesday our special activity was to begin a digital video project. Using a backing track of "What a Wonderful World" sung by Louis Armstrong, we have been using Windows Movie Maker to sequence a combination of still and moving images to produce a music video. In doing this, we have learned to add audio, picture and video images to the timeline and to edit video clips to the right length after selecting the part we want.
On Thursday we had a visit from the Road Safety team who did some activities to help us understand the distance it takes for cars to stop if the driver does an "emergency stop" and to think through a "road traffic accident analysis".
We have also been working in groups to produce a poster about a British mammal or insect. We did our research from books and the internet and then used pictures and diagrams from the internet and ones we drew ourselves together with paragraphs of writing to produce our posters.
School has now begun its summer half-term holiday. We re-open on Monday 2nd June.
