Today in computing we looked at the physical hardware used to make a computer. In groups we looked at some very strange looking computer parts and tried to guess what they did. We then used our knowledge to match pictures, titles and descriptions of parts that can be found both inside and outside of a computer.
This half term in computing we have been learning how to keep ourselves safe online. We watched the CEOPs ‘Play, Like, Share’ animated series which provided us with knowledge, skills and confidence we need to deal with the risks we might encounter online. We all participated in many meaningful discussions, and tested our online safety knowledge by answering questions and drawing labelled diagrams. We ended our unit on online safety by playing ‘Band Runner’ a fun, interactive game in which we had to help our character make safe online choices.
Year One and Two have been creating a talking book of their own favourite story that they can share with others. We learned how talking books differ from paper-based books, how to record our voices and how to create our characters to use in our stories. We thought they were great and we hope you do too!
Through play Reception have been exploring how Bee-Bots work. They have been learning how to move the Bee-Bots in different ways to better understand the controls.
This week we had, ‘don’t bump my nose’ races to see who could get the closest to, but not hit, the wood pile. Great fun was had by all!
In computing, we learned about the connections we have with other people and how these may be linked to others, creating a social network. We then applied this knowledge to learn how a computer network passes messages and the equipment that is used in the process.
