New Technology in Room 9

Room 9 has begun training to use net-books as part of our learning.  Mrs Grant is teaching us how to use them, and is showing us the different things we can do with them.  Today we used them during written language.  

Commonwealth Games Design Work

While we were looking at the Commonwealth games we decided to do some design work.  We looked at how the medals and mascot were created for the Glasgow games and came up with concept sketches for our own ideas.  Each finished mascot represents an area within the Commonwealth.  Here are a few of the designs we came up with.

And... a few of our medal designs.

Are you ready?
