Background

Children were learning about energy – sound and light. The children created a book and a movie about the things they had learned.

How ICT supported learning and teaching

The children all typed all pages of their energy books and this included using wordart as well as basic word processing skills. The children all then took parts in the filming, editing and creating of the class movie on energy.

Impact / conclusion

Children were all highly enthusiastic and very proud of what they had achieved. The parents were invited into school to view their books and to watch the movie and all commented on how much the children had enjoyed the topic and how much work they had done at home to ensure it was a success.
