This lesson is great to help you get to know a new class in a short space of time. It involves planning and photographing self-portraits that capture children’s distinct personalities.
As well as giving you the chance to familiarise yourself with a group of new faces, the lesson also allows children to find out more about one another. KS2 pupils find the creative combination of computing, art, PSHE and English particularly engaging.
