Editing photos and text with Appleworks
The lesson
As the pupils go into class, they each collect a computer. When they are settled and their iBooks are open, Mr Turnbull explains what they will be doing today. All the children watch on the interactive whiteboard as he reminds them how to access their folders on the school server.
Using the whiteboard, Mr Turnbull shows the children what to do – one step at a time. After each short demonstration, the pupils turn to their iBooks and have a go themselves. Mr Turnbull and the classroom assistant move around the classroom, helping out where necessary. By the end of the lesson, the children have seen how to import a photograph, change the size, colour and font of text, and add a frame around the text.
They save their new documents into their personal folders, close the iBooks and place them carefully back in the cabinet as they leave the classroom.
