Sense College Bedford thanks the Ian Karten Charitable Trust for their very kind and generous donation which is benefiting students of all different abilities through the use of technology.
Charlie has been using the big screen to play interactive games that promote fine motor skills and the use of numeracy and literacy. Charlie loves the interactive part of these lessons, this interactive board is Charlie’s favourite piece of equipment as he is very much a cause and effect motivated learner.
As per the pictures shown, Charlie can be seen pairing the cups to the saucers. This task corresponds nicely to his objectives and his ability to show a clear understanding of contextual numbers and counting.
In addition to this, this task also incorporates the use of literacy in the form of praise (as per the last image) where Charlie has completed the task and is being given praise in the form of “Well done!”.
This allows Charlie to understand clearly that he has finished the task correctly and can move on to the next one. The use of technology has been used to increase Charlie’s educational and psychological wellbeing as it combines something he enjoys in an educational setting to produce a desired outcome for his termly progress.
