Gigajam Junior
New on LGfL for music is Gigajam Junior. Gigabot takes you through lessons, video clips, and a Gigapedia glossary section, to give you all you need to introduce the young learner to the world of drumming. Start by going to the Exploring the Drums section to discover what each part of a kit is called and what it does and to build you own drum-kit. www.gigafun.lgfl.net
Newham ICT Scheme of Work
In addition to their foundation stage materials, Newham have now launched their entire ICT scheme of work (covering years 1 - 6). Featuring active flip chart resources and tutorial videos there is a wealth of resources on offer. Importantly every unit contains a challenge lesson which gives the children an opportunity to develop their independent ICT capability. http://www.itass.newham.gov.uk/curriculum/sow.aspx
New Voices, Old Vic
Under Kevin Spacey’s direction, the Old Vic Education section has employed professional directors, writers and actors to work with pupils and students from South London schools on a variety of projects to encourage them to think about the creative use of drama in other subjects. The first project was a joint collaboration with the Imperial War Museum around the theme of the first day of the battle of the Somme in 1916.
LGfL has agreed to host this and subsequent OVNV projects to make them available permanently as an anytime, anywhere resource for the National Education Network. Each project comes with full lesson plans and videos to help teachers and students create their own version of the project in their school.
