Practical Lessons 1

Well I have had my first comment from an interested reader.
After the experiment with the graphs I am much encouraged. The kids are still buzzing and having the results published in the Newsletter gave it a real audience. The children all have their own graphs filed in their folders and today some parents came in a looked at their child's results. What really impressed me was when I did a quick assessment using a variety of Graphs the kids could all interpret (at varying degrees) what they saw.

today's lesson is with a yr 2 group looking at Photography. Visual language. The intention is to look at what images can tell us.

Simple set up
1x camera digital
1x Projector sitting in the middle of the mat.
1x Small whiteboard
1x Laptop
1x Modified level 2 lesson plan.

The idea comes from Mike Anderson and Kate Barrett, who both ran sessions at Navcon.

When it is finished I will try and place a few shots of the lesson on the Blog, along with a quick evaluation.
