This week we had the opportunity to go to the aquarium, after discussing the sub-theme of the photography project – ‘Taking Photos Under Water’. Although we could not swim with the fish and sharks and take photos using action cameras, we took photos of the different sea creatures we saw from behind the glass of the aquarium:
*Potential Photos of the Outing and the Photos the children took*
As part of the current photography project we are doing, this week we had the photo challenge of taking photos of things of a certain shape in the classroom. Each child was in a group, which took photos with actual cameras of circle, square and rectangle-shaped things in the classroom, these are some of the photos they took:

Welcome to this week’s challenge, where each child will have the opporunity to express creatvity digitally.
This week each child is challenged to create a book using of the two methods we have already introduced in class:
Mystorybook.com or Story Jumper
The theme to be focused on is obviously, the virus, however the book does not have to be story that the child invents. It can be a dairy of what you do each day, a non-fiction fact book about the virus or any form you think of … the more creative the better.
since the children are still learning to read and write, I recommend you let the children to the graphics first, and then they will explain or literate and you write a caption the the pages.
Remember, it is important that your role as an adult is not to tell the child what to do, but to facilitate and suggest how the child goes about creating this masterpiece. When you are finally finished from doing your book, send me photos or videos of the children doing the book (the process) and a link to the the finished product. I will look through them and post them by the end of the week!
