We used the laptops to help us research into our science topic, we are learning about food chains and habitats. It was amazing using the laptops in the classroom as we now have wifi. It really helped us to investigate different habitats, animals and plants.

We had a fantastic afternoon using the laptops and it allowed us to develop a variety of skills such as listening, talking and teamwork. The skills we used helped us to be successful in our learning. We also thought that we were very patient when Miss Ritchie was demonstrating how to to use them and in addition we thought we were very good at taking turns using the laptop with our partner.
