Hello.

So far this term I’ve been very busy working with the boys and girls from our Nursery, p1a, p2, p2/3, p4/5 and our Software Development Skills Academy. The knowledge and skills that so many pupils have for starting is absolutely great. I will be working with pupils and staff to develop and harness tis knowledge and skills.

Here is some of the topics we are covering in ICT for term 1:

• Nursery are learning to use the mouse and basic computer functions, such as internet and games

 

• p1a  are learning to access the PCs in the ICT suite with greater independence and knowing what software to use for each task

 

• p2 are learning about the different features and functions of computers and mobile devices

 

• p2/3 are learning about the ‘home row’ of keys and how to type faster and with greater accuracy

 

• p4/5 are using Microsoft Paint to create a picture of our school, making full use of the drawing tools

 

I am looking forward to updating this blog with great examples of our learning as we go.
