There will be some interesting developments in the use of Picture the Music Create in other areas of education. We will keep you posted...]]> phildavis NewsTue, 08 Jun 2010 12:54:42 +0100 http://www.PictureTheMusic.com/community/forum/read.php?1,180,180#msg-180 http://www.PictureTheMusic.com/community/forum/read.php?1,180,180#msg-180Writing is Primary - a report documenting a 15 month action research project on the teaching of writing in primary schools. It has been written for schools with head teachers wanting to take action to improve the teaching of writing across their school, lead teachers eager to develop their subject knowledge and teaching staff who would like to see their pupils leave primary school with a deeper understanding and enjoyment of what writing can be for them and what it can do in the world beyond the classroom.

The findings of the team of schools showed that ' by stimulating emotions and imagination these approaches gave pupils a reason to write, motivating them to plan, plot and sequence, work on and improve a piece of writing through several drafts.'

The full report is attached to this news item.]]> phildavis NewsMon, 22 Mar 2010 10:18:29 +0000 http://www.PictureTheMusic.com/community/forum/read.php?1,178,178#msg-178 http://www.PictureTheMusic.com/community/forum/read.php?1,178,178#msg-178quick evaluation form - let us know how things are going.

..it really makes your brain run.

Sounds create a whole bunch of ideas.

It helped me create a powerful Imagination.

I think i can use this at SATs and English tests and long writing tasks.

It gave us so many ideas.

Sounds can take your mind and create images.

It teaches you in a fun and active way where you can imagine anything.

I enjoyed every single bit about it.

His two prints are being exhibited in the Weston room and were selected by Eileen Cooper RA. She said about Mick's work - 'This shows great control of the medium; it's got limited colour, beautifully achieved. I just think it is a very playful and charming representation of Greenwich.'

To view one of the prints go to the online gallery and scroll to image 3 of ten - click here to visit

The summer exhibition is open to the public until the 16th August 2009.

We've tried to incorporate all the input we received, please let us know what you think.

Does it give you the information you need ?
Is it easy to find the information you need ?

We've still got a long way to go, especially in the community section where we have big plans...

Thanks for all your help.]]> Daniel Webb NewsThu, 19 Jan 2006 18:19:58 +0000 http://www.PictureTheMusic.com/community/forum/read.php?1,41,63#msg-63 http://www.PictureTheMusic.com/community/forum/read.php?1,41,63#msg-63
Be careful what you ask for...

Votes currently stand at:

home_01 - 5
home_02 - 3
home_03 - 2
home_04 - 6

We'd completely dismissed home_04 before asking and were going with home_01 but I believe that the strong showing of home_04 was down to its 'artistic' content - less straight lines, more creative.

So we are now working on incorporating the creative direction of home_04 into the informational layout of home_01.

We'll keep you posted and thanks again for your help.]]> Daniel Webb NewsThu, 20 Oct 2005 12:51:46 +0100 http://www.PictureTheMusic.com/community/forum/read.php?1,41,62#msg-62 http://www.PictureTheMusic.com/community/forum/read.php?1,41,62#msg-62 Anonymous NewsMon, 17 Oct 2005 19:16:37 +0100
