Term one LT showed children how to use the coaching programme. Due to a busy classroom it was not continued on and came to an end. We have been using the projecter daily in our classroom for brainstorms for writing. The children enjoy haivng the projecter on it means they can all see and it read able for all students. We have our words to our song up in the mornings through the projecter this is great it is quick and easy and the children seem focused. We used the camera at the beginning of the year but this was not successful as trying to teach students to use it and the rest of the class got off task. We use the camera during maths often for children to take photos of their work when working independently the children enjoy taking photos for there work and keeps them on task as they enjoy using the camera and I can go back and look at what they have done.

Term two - April We have began using power point for our news board in the mornings now. The children are foucsed and show more enthuism doing our news board this way. They are also showing better skills on computer when they are typing up their own work.
