For Loirston :)

September 10, 2007

Hello Loirston! Good luck with the Voki code. I’ve posted an answer to your query on the forums. I hope it helps.

Your Voki seems to work ok here

... thanks for agreeing to let us remove it - that voice message was REALLY annoying!

Welcome to Carronshore Mrs Paton!

September 7, 2007

Mrs P is going to be with us for the next 5 weeks. Today was her first visit to Carronshore P.S. We all spent a lovely (but very busy!) day together. We took some time to interview Mrs P so that we could get to know her better. We picked some names out of a hat to decide which 4 pupils would have the job of making up questions to ask her.

You can listen to the interview by clicking on the icon below

Monica on the Keyboard

September 5, 2007

 Today, Monica played the keyboard for us. She has been going to Keyboard lessons and was keen to show us what she had learned.

We also wanted to practise making a video. Darren was chosen to be the ‘cameraman’. As a class, we uploaded the video on to ‘Jumpcut‘. There were lots of editing tools to play around with, too. We didn’t have lots of time to play around, but we’ll certainly experiment with it again!


Primary School – High School Link!!

September 4, 2007

 Today we had some visitors from Larbert High School.

Mark, Connie and Sophie popped in to see us. They were in P7V last session. We wanted to know how they were getting on in High School so Nina and Bethany interviewed them hoping to make a podcast for the Blog.

We ran out of time before the podcast could be published, so I completed it for them …… I hope they don’t mind that I used Voki to ’spice it up’ a bit .

Thumbs up to Anna’s mum …. and to ‘Voicethread’!

September 2, 2007

Anna wrote a great post describing her cheerleading hobby ….. and her mum read it at work and left this lovely comment: 

Hi Anna,

Love reading your blog while I am at work,

Love Mum xx

Anna discovered it at school on Friday while we were writing our ‘Bio Poems’. It was VERY exciting! You can visit Anna’s Blog HERE  … and thank you, Anna, for the lovely poem ;)

Maybe more mums, dads, grans, grandads, uncles, aunties etc will start to add comments. We’re going to have an evening workshop on the 2nd of October to show them how easy it is (and to tell them about some other cool stuff we’ve been doing!)

I’ve also been playing around with Voicethread. I hope it works in school! Press the play button below to see an example …. made it in a rush but it seems to have potential :D
