<\/a>I am excited about this one, Morag and Marylyn’s blog the Interactive Talking Teddies is one of the best examples of good practice I have seen.\nSubtitle: A Tale of Two Bears and Two Classes, the room is full and they have sent for extra seats. David<\/a> has been dispatched to get a cable. Spencer and Campbell are in place.<\/p>\n
Project took place between to Argyll Primaries.
\nStarted two years ago, adapting ideas for younger children,
\nBears posted to respective schools.
\nChildren discussed what to do with the bears, some wanted them to go on the bus.
\nNice audio-slides of the children talking. Recorded delivery, track bear’s progress.
\nChildren assumed bear would hibernate during journey.
\nChildren talk for bears, videoed with iSight. Bear taken on board as real person, video and photos taken by primary two children.
\nBears went home, over 2000 digital photos came into school.<\/p>\n
Kidspiration<\/b> to write and tell children in partner school.
\nChildren’s work added to scrapbook which returned to original school.
\nCampbell went to Isaly to do an island tour, vib on Logan Air flight.<\/p>\n
Interactive whiteboards, Morag started posting on a blog about there ict activities.
\nAfter a hibernation, Spencer and Campbell wanted a blog!<\/p>\n
Spensers and Campbell’s activities provided a inspiration for children’s writing, from getting a uniform knitted to going on a boat trip. Children created holiday projects, there are so many great ideas attached to this project, too many to type.<\/p>\n Motivation, Approbation, independence, Confidence, Communication, Collaboration<\/b><\/p>\n Best thing I’ve seen at Sett<\/p>\n
\nPrimary 3’s wrote article for calmac magazine, great real audience.
\nChildren made ‘contraption’ technology for transporting the bears, the children wrote at length<\/em>.
\nChildren took Bears home; on condition they did something interesting and they wrote about it in the bear’s diary.
\nComic Life<\/b>
\nFlappy le Crow, a french crow from Tobermory visited and only spoke french.
\nHome School links, holiday activity, bears passed from child to child, lots of parent involvement.<\/p>\n
