write up a science experiment using pictures taken of the equipment, procedure and results with a write up of each in the video also

# data[].attributes.body
1. Recount - using pictures from an event to recount it e.g. a school tour, play etc.
2. Narrative - children create a narrative to bring their story to life
3. Procedure - children create a scratch project and then create a step by step instruction on how they made it.
4. Report - create a report or news item based on a topic under study e.g. The life of Tom Crean
5. Persuasive - create an animation of a debate between 2 characters e.g. a teacher and pupil debating whether homework should be banned.
6. Explanation - children code a quiz based on a topic being studied e.g. how erosion occurs, the water cycle, transportation in plants etc.

# data[].attributes.body

# data[].attributes.body
1. Prediction - read chapter in a book and create animation of what they think will happen next.
2. Understanding - create a quiz based on a story read.
3. Evaluation - create an animated book review.
