How to Improve Photography in Your School
Over the years at my school, I've attempted to develop and improve photography so it becomes a seamlessly integrated aspect of daily life. Some of the strategies I use are pretty obvious to me but I figured that they might not be to others, so here are sixteen of my top tips: 1. Apply for a school Animoto account - they're free for educators and allow you to quickly and easily create slideshow montages of events such as trips out. https://animoto.com/education/classroom 2. If you're using tablets to take your photos, place a little sticker next to the lens so you... Continue reading

Lego Imaginnering in Schools
I've always been a huge fan of Lego - indeed I probably have nearly £2,000 worth of models on display in my collection at home (which is still growing). Over the years, I've read about, been trained in and taught a variety of brick-themed projects in school, most notably: Lego Therapy for improving social skills; Lego 10-bricks for developing maths skills; programming Lego WeDo sets for improving programming skills. What I feel that's been lacking though is actually giving children the opportunities for using Lego to build and play with in less structured, more imaginative experiences. A few days ago,...

Teaching Algorithms
I find covering algorithms the trickiest part of primary Computing because they are hard to find technology-themed resources for which actually teach children about them and which improves their learning - I refuse to teach them using cooking analogies because I think this is more focused on writing instructions which should be done in English, yet beyond simply writing down arrows for a Bee-Bot to move, I've found little else online that is actually helpful. For these reasons, I've spent a while trying to carefully come up with a sequence of algorithm lessons which show clear progression between year groups,... Continue reading

Leaver's Video Songs
This is tenth year now that I've been making a slideshow for our leaving Year 6 class using either PhotoStory or now Movie Maker - http://www.parkfieldprimary.com/parkfield/leavers-videos.html. I've always used Believe as the soundtrack, but this year I'm using a different piece of music. I canvased opinion on Twitter and came up with this shortlist from which I got the Year 6 pupils to vote for their 'favourite'. I'll share their choice when I publish the video in July, but in the meantime, here are all the suggestions I had to help inspire you create one for your school: On My... Continue reading
