This week we were very excited when we came into class on Thursday morning to find there was a green screen attached to our large whiteboard. We curiously explored underneath thinking something was hidden but we later found out its purpose. During our reading lesson we used Ipads and the green screen to video record our connections. When we looked back at the recordings on the Ipad we were speaking against the back drop from our reading book. In writing we used a picture of the Isle of Struay on the Ipads and recorded ourselves in front of the green screen convincing people to come visit. This time when we looked back at our recording it was like we were in the Isle of Struay.

In topic we have been using national geographic map maker in our ‘families’ to create our own Island and label the human and physical features. We are really enjoying this and love using technology to help us with our learning!
