The 2Simple software package is packed with loads of features and was installed on all of the computers at my EPP school. I observed a year 3 ICT lesson where children had to create a picture, poem or presentation based on the book "we're all wonders". Many of the children opted to use 2paint within the 2simple package and with this they could easily make a pastel style picture of Auggie (the main character).
It was fantastic to see children embracing ICT to create artwork and many utilised the features of watercolour. This was cross curricular as it taught children how mixing water could lead to different effects.
As I was unfamiliar with the software myself, the teacher challenged me to have a go at using it to create my own drawing! My attempt is below.
