Video Conferencing - ICT Clubs
Today children from our ICT clubs held a video conference to talk about their work.
The children from Year 1 at Scargill Infant school told our Year 6 children about their ICT club project to design a T-shirt picture.
The children at Scargill Infants had drawn pictures using the computer program TextEase - Paint. These pictures were then transferred to special paper and ironed on to a T-shirt.
The children proudly wore their T-shirts and told us all about this project.
The pictures were extremely detailed and they had created very complicated backgrounds using shapes and different colours.
The T-shirts were beautiful.
Our Year 6 children asked them a wide range of questions about the software, how easy it was to draw using this program, their ideas and the time it had taken to complete the work.
The Parkhill children then explained how they were creating animations using stop frame camera pictures. Their main focus for the first film was speech and how they were making a speaking face with a plasticine mouth.
