To revise for our First Aid assessment, we created our own Google Form quiz to test what we and others knew about the making a primary assessment, CPR and the recovery position. We formatted quizzes, made an answer key and tested them out so that others could use them in the class.
As part of our History topic, Liverpool and the Transatlantic Slave Trade, Year 6 pupils used an interactive map of the city to investigate the legacy of slavery that still exists to the present day. Using the map, we watched videos, learnt facts and looked at the geographical significance of the location compared to the Liverpool Docks. We used this research to create a poster and present our information to the rest of the class.
As part of our blended learning curriculum, Year 6 have been learning how to access Google Classroom, complete work and hand in their work. They have used Google Docs, Google Forms and Google Slides to complete different tasks and learnt the importance of formatting their work so that it looks professional.
Programming
Using the SpriteBox app, Year 6 have been developing their programming skills. Progressing through each stage of this platform game required children to use advanced programming skills solve problems. Here they decomposed problems into smaller parts to ensure that their character could complete the level.
Digital Art
Using the digital art website: Weavesilk, we combined shapes, colours and explored symmetry to draw. Some of us even preferred this method over using 'actual' art materials.
