As part of our Digital Learning Week celebrations, P4-7 participated in a collaborative story. The class were given the opening, which told the story of Doctor Xenon who discovered a mysterious object and hoped to use it to prove the existence of life elsewhere in the solar system.  Pupils had to work together to continue the story – but not finish it, as this was the job of Portpatrick and Leswalt!!

Our responsible Digital Leaders also organised lunch time ICT clubs, teaching younger pupils to login and make Powerpoints, and older pupils about coding. Lots of pupils were keen to attend, even though the sun was shining!

Mrs Carol Moyes from the Raise team (Raising Aspirations in STEM Education) paid the school a visit to teach pupils how to use the Green Screen. She first worked with P1-4 then P4-7, showing them how to take a video against the green screen, upload it to the computer and use the chroma key to remove the green background and add in different effects. Pupils were amazed to see how we can make the video look as if we are in the Bahamas when we are actually in our classroom at Kirkcolm!!

We have had a great week developing our digital skills and thanks must go to our Digital Leaders for helping to organise events.
