Description

Year 6 students were given the task of creating a virtual tour of their school to advertise on their school website. Students were split into small groups and designated a specific area of the school. Each group was provided an iPad and a small recording playback device on which the teacher had recorded some Welsh vocabulary for the children to use in their tour. Children used the camera function on their iPad to film themselves introducing each area of the school in Welsh. Once all the groups had completed their short videos, they were saved onto the school’s online storage drive. Students were then able to access all the videos in their small groups and combine the clips to create individual virtual tours of their school. Using the AirPlay feature on the school’s Apple TV, students were able to present their videos to the class on the big screen.

Clips

In this clip the children were using a little recording device to help them listen and practice their speech, and then the video option on the iPad to film each other for their tour of the school. There was prior learning to this clip, looking at different language patterns, words and adjectives to use in Welsh, so the iPad gave them a platform to be able to experiment and use those words and patterns. The recording and editing using the iPads also allows them to find and fix their own mistakes. The portability of the iPads allowed the children to go out around the school and not be stuck in the classroom.
