Distance Learning – Day 32

Today is our final day of Lego Week and I’m sure you will agree that it has been a huge success. The children have really extended their digital skills as well as consolidating existing Maths and Literacy skills.

Time-lapse Lego build movies

Grace has added a background track to her time-lapse Lego build movie making it more interesting.

She also shared this movie that she helped her brother make for his ancient Egypt activity. Good job!

Lucy has really challenged herself with this Lego time-lapse movie. She has given it lots of thought and planning: adding transitions, titles, background music and I particularly like the camera work and lighting. Very professional!

Kara’s Lego house build.

Stop motion Lego movies

Delisha has added voice-overs to her stop motion to tell her story.

 

Jamie’s Star War inspired animation. I’m afraid I had a problem turning this video around. It plays on my PC in the correct direction but posts on the blog in this direction. Sorry!

Lewis has used an app called VideoScribe to tell his story of Pixie Lott and Steve. Very interesting!

Lego presentations

Zaina’s History of Lego presentation.

Alex has included a quiz at the end of his presentation.

 

Lego bar charts

Yesterday it was Venn diagrams and today it’s Bar charts. Is there no end to the versatility of Lego. Follow a Google classroom survey about favourite crisp flavours, the children were supplied with the data and asked to build a Lego bar chart.

This is George’s bar chart with colour coded Lego brick to represent the flavour of the crisps, following the controversial Walker’s blue for Cheese and onion flavour. He has decided to stack his bricks to give his bar chart a 3D feel.

Jamie has used a Lego baseplate to attach his bricks and he has remembered to label his axes. Good job!

Dylan has used his ingenuity and decide to draw his bar chart. Good thinking!

Similar to Jamie, Wint is laying her brick down flat but without a baseplate.

Zac has colour coded his bricks and included visual labels. Very eyecatching!

Finally, Kara has done a great job here with her vertical bar chart.

Lego Board Games

I supplied the children with a very simple Lego board game today and challenge them to make it better or come up with their own.

Jamie has created this very cool looking Lego board game and written out the rules.

Lewis has devised this game to help soon-to-be Primary pupil with her maths skill. What a lovely gesture!

Zac has improved the game of Snake and Ladder with the introduction of Lego.

 

Lego Bridge Building Challenge

Alex’s solution to the river crossing problem from yesterday.

Lego art

Kara shared her Lego minifigure design. I love the bright coloured clothes and the crown.

This is a Lego minifigure, Hermione, that Delisha shared.

Finally, Wint has built a house for Lego Week.
