Pupils become weather presenters

There was no hurricane at Waycroft Academy as Year 3 pupils created their own weather reports for the South West of England.

Using green screen technology, pupils filmed their forecasts before selecting background images to replace the green pixels in their videos. The project gave pupils the opportunity to step into the role of weather presenters, delivering reports directly to camera.

As part of the activity, pupils developed confidence in speaking, worked collaboratively as a team and learned how to use an autocue, gaining valuable digital and communication skills along the way.

A spokesperson for Waycroft Academy said: “Projects like these bring learning to life.

“The children showed fantastic enthusiasm and creativity, and it was wonderful to see their confidence grow as they presented their weather reports.

“These experiences help prepare pupils with skills they will use both in school and beyond.”
