2nd Year English students are being very innovative by using their tablets to create book trailers.

Tuesday, 15th October - our second year students are creating book trailers in their tablets.  It's a group project, which requires the completion of key tasks by each student depending on their role: director, cinematographer, editor, I look forward to posting some of the finished trailers! This is a collaborative learning exercise, which enables our students to practise the Key skill: Working with others through digital technology.
