Camera

The children take all the photos themselves and they are getting very good at it. They have learnt how to hold the camera when they are carrying it and using it. We have looked at the angle to hold the camera when taking a photo. Holding it portait, up and down, is good only when the photos are for our art in the classroom. But if we want to make a Photo Story, landscape, long ways and the normal way a camera is held, is best. This is because we don't want to have to fiddle around with changing the picture around when we are making the Photo Story.

The children are also learning to save all their own work into their own school folder, how to transfer photos into their own folders and how to make a Photo Story. The stories you can see on the blog has had plenty of teacher input but these children are quick learners! I am looking forward to when they can do it all themselves!
