Subject: I.C.T.
I
had difficulty explaining the purpose and organisation of databases with
Y3 children until I realised that a perfect child friendly data base comes
in the form of Top Trumps games.
I
give each child a card to locate information from, they then compare their
information in groups and choose the card that they think has the best chance
of winning in a game of Top Trumps - this gives them the opportunity to locate
and compare data and make choices.
They
then play a brief game as a class using only the one card from each group.
They
then come up with ideas for making their own game and deciding which facts
they should include on each card.
