Digital Literacy

Morning Everyone! I’m already looking forward to what you all get up to on your first Big Thursday at home. If any of you fancy a bit of computer science at home, here are some links that might be useful:

Stop Motion

You are all becoming pros at stop motion, if you have the lego or the playdough out at home and you fancy making a film, there are lots of free apps for tables/phones that can help you make them. Here is a list of some of the top rated apps https://freeappsforme.com/stop-motion-apps/

Podcasts

First up there are hundreds of podcasts you can  listen to while you’re at home, to entertain/teach/make you think… Here are some top recommended podcasts https://www.wired.com/story/best-podcasts-for-kids/ My favourites are: Brains on (I just listened to “Do Dogs Know They’re Dogs?”)  Smash Boom Best (Chocolate versus Cheese…tough choice)  and But Why? (answering lots of the big questions, like, are jellyfish made of jelly?)

When you’ve had your fill of listening, try recording your own. We used Audacity at school and you should be able to download that to your computer for free. Alternatively, you can just use the voice recorder on your phone/tablet. If you have an iPad or iPhone you can use GarageBand to edit it – remember soundjay.com  has royalty free sounds and songs.

Have fun recording/being creative! Miss S
