The objective of the project was to promote confident individuals and effective contributors by working on verbal fluency with children at pre-literate stages, in a descriptive, followed by story- making, sequence of pictures.
Objectives
Images from Flickr, used in slide show format, on a laptopSoftware
Description Nursery children, in a free choice setting, opted to come to the computer in turn, and initially describe, respond and comment on a series of pictures. On the final image being shown, they were asked very open ended questions, and stimulated to create a story about the picture
Learning Areas Confident individuals, Effective Contributors

Teaching Resources
To prepare for teaching in the nursery setting using a digital image sequence, a Flickr slideshow was put together. See document below for details.
A laptop was used to show the sequence, and children took it in turns to come and work one to one beside the laptop.
Internet access is required to access Flickr, but a slideshow could probably be exported, and saved to a file if this isn’t possible.
A separate laptop could be used to directly transcribe the stories as they were spoken, saving a manual transcription stage.
