During these days we have been working in class very hard to complete the term and learn lots of things. The augmented Reality is a new resource to see additional context and images from the reality toghether our text books, maps and content we worked in Arts and Crafts.
We are going to do a whole revision of applications and webs we have seen until now.
The Body Systems. We used that day Learnar.org
And Learnar: the webpage where you can download the marker to see the body. There are other useful 3d imges
http://www.learnar.org/
Quiver: We used it in Arts and crafts to do some models related to the Halloween. We saw some pumkins but there are other templates.
These days we are decorating the classes with pumkings, scary decorations and ghosts. We are creating a fantastic garland with pumkins but we are using some Augmented Reality resources.
Children have a drawing with some pumkins on an rectangular picture. This is a marker o a launcher for our “Dancing Pumkins”. To see the animation of the pumkins you need to download an App called Quiver.
Once you download the application you scan with the camara our Halloween drawing and the pumkings will start to move and dance.
There are other templates you can download from the same application or here:
These days we are introducing in arts and crafts an interesting way to create characters or drawings thanks to the “Augmented Reality”. Thanks to applications like Quiver, we worked in Halloween, or Chromville we can paint and personalise models that we can download from these websites. In this case with Chromville we create a nice monster but the activities this Application has are wonderful. There are some arts & crafts print downloads that increase children’s creativity, science projects to check how a plant grows or we can visualize the metamorphosis of a frog.
Chromville: LEARNING WHILE HAVING FUN
