Year 4
In this lesson we explored different online profiles. We rated the following profiles with either positive or nagative qualities.
We looked at how these people behave towards others online and what might other people think about them. Some of these people bahaved in a positive way where as others behaved in a negative way.
We also explored how our online identity can be different to our offline identity. Online identiy gives people more control over how the present themselves and can share who they make themselves aware to. Offline identities are shaped by interactions, shares factual information and are usually influenced by face-to-face interactions.
To identify that sound can be recorded
● I can identify the input and output devices used to record and play sound
● I can use a computer to record audio
● I can explain that the person who records the sound can say who is allowed to use it
Audio, microphone, speaker, headphones, input device, output device
In this lesson, children identified the input devices used to record sound and output devices needed to listen to it. They then recorded their voices using a computer, and reflected on what makes a good audio recording. Lastly,they considered ownership and copyright issues related to recordings.
To explain that audio recordings can be edited
● I can re-record my voice to improve my recording
● I can inspect the soundwave view to know where to trim my recording
● I can discuss what sounds can be added to a podcast
Audio, sound, podcast, edit, trim, align
In this lesson, children recorded and re-recorded their voices to improve their recordings. They edited the recordings, removing long pauses and mistakes. Children also listened to a range of podcasts and identified the features of a podcast.
In this lesson, children recorded their voices and then imported and aligned sound effects to create layers in their recordings. Children learnt how to save their work so it remains editable. They also planned their own podcast which they will work on in future lessons.
