Winding up the Hockey season with the team coming 4th. It was a steep learning curve coming from primary grades to 2nd XI but we had fun and many of the girls are well on their way to becoming talented players.
This term I had to face an old nemissis, integers. This area of maths gave me nightmares as a 13 year old, so, now faced with the reality to having to teach this to my maths class, I was again quaking at the knees. We are still not best and fast friends, but are getting along for the sake of the students!
Oh the variety of topics! The students have spent the best part of the last 5 weeks, pla nning and creating and crafting and moulding and applying small squares of typed text onto cue cards! Many hours practising infront of the mirror, to the family cat, with friends and in the shower.
Thwe proof will now be in the execution of delivery...
I had a fabulous workshop session with Hamish as part of the IT Learning Circles. This app has plenty to offer. The plan is to now incorporate this with my PLD focus on unpacking and playing around with the new Digital Technologies curriculum. Maybe as part of a Google Site? Watch this space...
