Hi everyone,
We welcome Christina to our room for a four week placement. She is learning the craft of being a special education teacher and doing a fantastic job.
Speaking of which, we have had many visitors to our room this week and our children have been sensational.
We have had lots to keep us busy as we explore our theme, Part of a Pattern.
We will be going to Beechworth Honey Shop to learn about bees and how honey is made.
Some of the boys are learning how to download the photos they have been taking and to insert them into powerpoint or word documents.
Christina has had the children making patterns in lots of different ways and learning about 3D shapes.
All of us have been learning about iPads and what a wonderful new exciting world this is!!!
From using the iPad as a communication device to literacy, numeracy activities and lots of apps that are just for fun. Talking Carl is very popular as is the many different GrasshopperApps.
We have also learned how to make our own books by adding photos and drawings with sound affects. Heaps of fun and very impressive learning taking place at the same time.
