Year 6
Year 6 have been designing their own buildings using Google SketchUp
Year 6 have been editing videos taken of our computing lessons to make a video about what computing looks like at our school. They have been practising clipping videos, adding music and visual effects and narrating.
Year 6 have built more advanced Lego WeDo models. They have then programmed the computer to control these.
Year 6 used Lego WeDo to make a fan that switched on when something came near it. There were no instructions for this one!
Year 6 have been using the LGfL's Web Tech Tutor (www.webtechtutor.lgfl.net) to practise their web page designs skills using HTML. They have begun to make some simple webpages....watch this space!
Year 6 have been making apps for iPads and iPhones!

Spring Term
We have just had a class set of Lego WeDo kit delivered to the school which will help the children understand about computer modelling. Year 6 were one of the first year groups to get their hands on the new kit! Check out the Year 6 Lego WeDo videos here.
