YEAR 1 began the day by creating toys and animals - using the Page Layout mode of Apple’s Pages program. As well as launching the software and choosing the correct type of blank document, the boys and gorls then used shapes from the toolbar to create an original piece of computer graphics. These included robots or their version of ‘Lotso’ Bear from the Toy Story films.
In the afternoon, Year 5 and their teacher Mr Allan-Snell were introduced to the wonderful world of 3D modelling using the professional software ‘SketchUp’.
As usual with a ‘first go’ using SketchUp at this level, the pupils were asked to create an original house - featuring chimney, garage and garden.
