What a brilliant day everyone! The boys talking about their TV Shows, Year 4 talking about their films and Year 6 discussing their animations in 3 very special assemblies. Pete and I have loved working with you all and were so pleased we could be with you to share in your successes!

One last chance – tell us exactly what you thought about the whole experience!

Take care – be good! Paul and Peter

Wednesday 24th March

Back in with the Year 6 children to animate a well-known traditional story. Today we are using the school Fizzbook machines so we know everything will work and the school can do it again whenever they want!

Retelling Humpty Dumpty, The Three Little Pigs and many more. Remembered things really well and just got on with the whole thing – champions!!

And action!

Lunchtime Wednesday:

Groups coming up with some ace animations. To say this is only the second time they have done this, they are away and working independently. Some groups are editing their work, we have frogs, penguins and bees a buzzing round the room!!

Make sure that you have everything ready for Wednesday Year 6. Storyboard, backgrounds, characters and props. If you get chance, have a bit of a go at your animation (obviously without filming!)
Remember, simple is beautiful!
See you Wednesday. Paul
