We welcomed our first year 4 class to the Exploration Station this week for two sessions about staying Safe and Strong online based around our Level 2 SHINE Online curriculum. This time we looked at creating either a Makey Makey project or a Google Slides animation. Both of these projects definitely got us sitting in the learning pit as many of our learners had never used either of these tools before.
We started off learning all about staying safe and strong online, we thought this funny song from Hectors world was actually quite useful in getting us thinking about staying safe and strong. It's been around for a long time so we talked about some things mentioned in the video we might not have to worry about anymore - like virus scanners - we don't need to install these on a Chromebook but we still need them if we're using a Windows or Macintosh/Apple machine.
For more great resources about staying safe and strong online visit our SHINE Online site here.
We didn't quite manage to finish everything on our projects, here a few photos of our process. We will share our finished creations in our classrooms and maybe on our classroom blogs.
Here are a few of the animations our Year 4 Learners have started creating...
