A new year and a new project.
Hello. We are back on deck!!
Our focus is to give our students and colleagues a new epxerience and an altenate option for the published piece, product or outcome in a unit of work.
We want them to use many types of software and combine them into one end product. Our starting point is the writing component which begins in the classroom. The focus on literacy and immersion in the narrative text type, this will evolve into script writng using the known text of fables and fairytales. This is the basis of student writing. We will be using minecraft as the medium to visually express ideas and form the basis or set for a film.
