Guest Posted January 16, 2005 Posted January 16, 2005 Hi everyone, i am seriously in need of some inspiration! i have a display board in my class (reception) that is specifically for ICT. does anyone have any ideas of what i can put on it? i am currently doing fairytales and thought about creating a map (little red riding hood) but not sure. i am also teaching early addition in numeracy, so thought about doing something like placing spots on a ladybird and adding them (but then realised i'd have to create a ladybird first!) Any ideas greatly appreciated as i am running out of them!
Guest Posted January 16, 2005 Posted January 16, 2005 We have a board that we use to display children's drawings ~ that have been drawn on the compuer programme. You could also display photos of objects such as electrical appliances, battery operated objects. You could even make a sorting game with these including a catergory that does not need power.
Guest Posted January 17, 2005 Posted January 17, 2005 Not strictly speaking Toys but I have used "Harry & the bucketful of dinosaurs" and "Billys bucket" We use Billy's bucket for water play, displays and Circle time. Water Play - Clear buckets, fishing nets, a variety of fish, sharks, rocks, mermaids, divers and subs. Children make a bucket like BIlly's Display - A clear bucket, acetate (3D) and the children think of things to put in the bucket. Positional language is good here. Under the shark, behind the spade etc. Circle time - A clear bucket, children take the bucket home, and return with some things important to them. We can all look through "x's" bucket and learn a little more about each other. Jan
SueFinanceManager Posted January 18, 2005 Posted January 18, 2005 Hi We were talking ITC at work the other day and these are some of the equipment we talked about that might give inspiration. Digital camera - create a photo album of the kids and their class enviroment Art packages on the PC - do a display of computer generated pictures (packages like dazzle) Calculators - big collage picture of a calculator surrounded by numbers Telephones - communication, language etc. How we use them to talk to people in other parts of the country/world Audio equipment - CD/tapes of different music, art piece inspred by a particular piece of music Alarm clocks - time and squencing the days activities Getting late now and brain started to dry up, hope this helps. Sue
