ICT
In ICT we have been learning how to use scratch and make at least 2 sprites and a backdrop and also make a conversation between them. We really enjoyed exploring scratch. We also created a fact file on climate change. We had to research 5 facts to add to our fact file. We also have been exploring Microsoft sway and making a sway to do with weather. We made a stack of pictures on Sway where you had to find some interesting weather pictures then we went on to customize and changed loads of things for example fonts and back round or the colour of the font. We also done micro bits they are very delicate so we had to be careful we used the tutorial flashing heart we done our names on them.
Literacy
In Literacy we have been doing quick write in the morning. We have quick write jotters to write in Mrs Mcnay finds a sway picture and we do something like describing bubbles to describe the picture. Some of the describing bubbles have things like colour and you write louds of different colours around the bubble that is in the picture. You have to at least have 3 things in each bubble. We also wrote a report on the nowhere emporium we aimed to use as much adjectives and openers as we could to make a good descriptive report. Everyone also did a poem under a rainbow we drew a rainbow and coloured them in the looked wonderful and certainly very colourful.
