Infographics - Deconstructing |
Free |
Lately it seems like every week a new infographic makes the rounds through the various social media circles of Twitter, Google+, and blogs. This afternoon as I was looking at another infographic that seemed to be making statements that were a little hard to believe, this time it was one aboutgerms found on computer keyboards, I started to think about deconstructing infographics. |

Kids Art Blog |
Free |
I have just started up a new blog project based on an activity I used to do at my previous school. During Guided Reading sessions I had a couple of other activities which some groups carried out whilst the others were reading. One of these was an art project in which I gave the children the title of a famous painting and asked them to create a piece of art with that title (without showing them the original). The kids loved this and it created a fantastic art gallery in our cloakroom. |

Logos that speak for themselves |
Free |
A creative logo design plays a vital role in portraying the brand identity of any company. It is not only the name of the company, but also the brand’s message that communicates with the customers. Therefore, you should keep in mind that it is also the logo design that makes your business memorable and distinguishes it from the rest!
It is for that reason that designers put a large amount of effort and time in designing creative and unique logo designs for their clients. In this post, we present to you some very cleverly designed logos that we hope will inspire you to try out something different! Feel free to share more interesting logos with us in the comment section below. |

Design and construct 3d nets / models
For their final ICT lesson of the year, I decided to show Year 3 the fabulous 2Design and Make application on Purple Mash. This basically allows you to paint nets of 3D shapes which can be previewed on the screen and then printed out onto card to be assembled together

Reception 2DIY Jigsaws
Another nice activity I've done with reception for the last couple of years is to teach them how to create a jigsaw puzzle using 2Do It Yourself.
They already play jigsaws I've made for them on the school website and are becoming familiar with the range of painting tools that are availble in the 2Simple Software collection, so I try to give them as much independence as possible when making their jigsaws up (just giving them a quick tutorial at the start to inpsire them with some ideas).
