MY PROJECT
Laughton Junior and Infant School is a wonderful school in Rotherham Authority, located in Sheffield.
What we want
We would like to purchase VR headsets (ideally to use alongside iPads) to give children an immersion into contexts; enhancing the Geography, English and History aspects of the curriculum.
In particular we would like the headsets to be able to
travel back in time to look at key aspects of history
and to
visit Mexico and the Galapagos Islands in Geography.
Who is this for?
This is for our whole school, to use across a range of subjects.
Why do we want it?
All children should have the
same opportunities to access technology
as part of the curriculum.
As a school we plan for the following to be realised from your generous donations:
1. An increasing number of pupils will be
intrigued and curious to pursue STEM
based subjects including coding.
2. Pupils will be even
more engaged
in their own learning across the curriculum and classes.
3. Pupils, parent and teachers will become
more aware of the language and concepts
of STEM, Tech & Coding.
4. Pupils (and teachers) will be
encouraged to develop
their own STEM, Tech and/or Coding
projects & resources.
5. Teachers will become
more confident in the application of technology within the classroom
to enhance the learning experience.
