However, these kids are between 5-7yrs so the immediacy of digital is vital to their learning and holding their attention I think. Sorry about the blank message.
What I was about to say was that children also like having something
to look forward to. Maybe it would make Monday morning more interesting if they
knew they were going to see the photos they had taken on Friday.
My earlier contribution about making notes about science experiments and
photography was intended for somewhat older children but a start could be made
by preparing a sheet about the conditions and the subject so that the children
could tick boxes to record whether it was indoors or outdoors whether the sun
was shining or whether there were lots of black clouds etc.
When the prints have been made the children could be asked to provide captions
or to suggest - in the case of say, an animal, what the animal might have been
thinking about at the time (but no French fauns in the middle of the
afternoon)
