This week we were using different digital technologies. The children are confident individuals at using the SMARTboard at morning group. They are able to use the pen to overwrite their name and some can even use the tools at the side to change the colour independently. We used the Beebots this week and the children loved exploring them. They were able to push the arrow buttons in a sequence to make the Beebot move a specific way. Some were even able to remember to press the cross before starting a new sequence. They loved that the Beebots had a light so we explored them in the dark too.
We used the SMARTboard to play lots of different games to. Everyone really enjoyed the shape game. We had to feed the correct shape to the correct shape monster. They were successful learners and able to use their finger to drag the shape to the mouth of the shape monster. We also played literacy games finding the beginning letter of CVC words.
We also had lots of fun with a noise activated spider. We had to make a noise to get the spider to move the louder the noise the faster it moved around the floor. We were confident individuals working on using our voice to make loud noises.
