Background

Chapelhall Primary School are trying to use their school grounds as a place of learning. This is the priority area for their Gold Health and a day of outdoor learning and fun was planned as part of this. This coincided with the inspection for their Gold Health Award and the Beebots and Probots were one of the activities planned as part of this event.

How ICT supported learning and teaching

Beebots and Probots helped to meet this by being part of the learning planned for outdoors on the day of the above event. The children all learned how to program a computerised toy and were able to follow a route using their program. They were able to devise their own routes to given criteria and drew lines, shapes and patterns using the Probots.

Impact / conclusion

This day was a great success and having the Beebots and Probots to use helped to make it more fun for the children. They worked together in groups and co-operated with each other for the activities.
These will be added to the requests for school purchases at a later date.
