After making Chocolate Rice Krispie cakes with my 3 and 4 year olds on Mon and Tues ( Very Yummy) i spent the last half of the week on a focused activity with them using the Digital Camera. The activity gave them the opportunity through ICT to experiment with the digital camera and they were all given the chance to take photo's of their classmates playing in their favourite areas of the class. The photo's taken are been used to complete an activity of 'Our daily routines' but i've also made a photostory out of them so the children can watch on arrival at school. The children love looking at photo's of themselves and are engaged in what they see as a little film show.
As with all activities some children fared better than others. Some were extremely confident taking hold of the camera independantly and able to focus themselves and take the photo. Others needed lots of support to take the photo's, with some who were even unable to hold the camera for themselves. On Monday i'm hoping to have the time to show a few of the children how we can print these photo's off, giving them the opportunity to learn more skills.
