Novo touch panel arrives in Primary One and Two

19th Jan 2022

There was great excitement in the Primary One and Two classroom today. A demo Novo touch panel was installed to trial, with the hope of purchasing our own with all the amazing funds you all donated to before Christmas. All the teaching staff received training from Jonathan Loper (IMEX) on Tuesday and were very impressed with what it could offer, although a bit of practice will be needed!  It has been a few months since we have had access to a big screen in our classroom, so the children had great fun working with a partner to try out some of the apps available. There was fantastic collaboration and every child got the opportunity to complete an online jigsaw of their choice, at the level they felt they were able to succeed with. We also used it for our SoundsWrite word building and sentence building. The children were particularly impressed with the touch screen and how much fun they could have with other children. We are all looking forward to finding out all about it over the next few weeks.
