Primary 3/4 at Whitecraig Primary School decided that people from outside Whitecraig didn’t know anything about it, and that they would use their project to do something about it.

The children were keen for the challenge and discussed in groups how they could share information about the village. Various ideas were suggested including writing reports, taking photographs and recording their own video.

The result was the video which you can see over at their school site. It’s a great example of how web publishing enables  what might be just a “pretend” classroom activity to be transformed into a real, relevant task, with a real audience, which really can make a difference. Why not have a look, and leave them a comment to let them know what you think?
