Children at Friockheim Primary School have been taught how to use the school's digital camera and take it home to record activities with the class's fluffy toy donkey, Eeyore, the Winnie the Pooh character.
Nursery nurse Tracey Bedwell said, 'It's been superb. The children have taken ownership of the project and learned how to use the equipment. From the start the children record and hear their own voice. The enthusiasm for learning has been great.'
Activities with Eeyore include journeys out in the car and lunchtime or bedtime stories. Once back in the classroom, the nursery teacher uses the images to discuss home activities with the child, who tackles some elementary writing while the teacher puts together a scrapbook with two pages for each child's day with the toy donkey.
