 What a fantastic lesson today learning about ten of the rivers found in The United Kingdom.  Using their ‘sticky knowledge’ the children recalled 5 cities in England. Most could remember 5 and some used the names of football teams to help them remember, although,  Mr Finch wasn’t too impressed when a young man said Manchester as Mr Finch supports Southampton. 😁 After, the children were given ten names of rivers, the children needed to guess which country they could be found even with Mrs Gregory’s bad accents they managed to guess quite a few of them.  From there, the children answered a few questions and then the completed an extension questions.

We talked about how anyone can add anything to the web, and how it is really important that we consider carefully the types of things that we share online. We then used 2 different internet services to see how content is created online in both Scratch and Chrome Music Lab.
