    This is a great online maths activity for the advanced thinkers (if you are going to use all four cards) but allows for the not so high achievers. Deffinately going to introduce this to my upper grade 4's

    Great post covering the basics of google maps. Segue...I had a great session with grade 2 integrating their map reading and story writing. Planned out a map and dropped markers on various landmarks around melb. Students in pairs were then allocated a marker with corresponding landmark and then had to write their part of the story. Best explained here http://2bornot2b.global2.vic.edu.au/2012/03/23/a-google-map-journey/.

Critical thinking explained in six kid-friendly animations - 2 views

  •  
    Critical thinking explained in six kid-friendly animations If you've been looking for a crash course in basic logic - or just want to explain to a friend exactly what a logical fallacy is - turn your attention to these simple, easy-to-understand videos, which lay out the basics of critical thinking. Creative solutions agency Bridge 8 created these animations to offer a basic overview of critical thinking. The videos were designed for an audience of kids (Edit: Australian grades, not ages) 8-10, but they're handy for anyone who wants to brush up on their logic. The first video (up top), provides an introduction to critical thinking and how we form judgments and opinions.

Official Google Blog: App Inventor for Android - 0 views

  •  
    This looks very interesting. The potential is huge for students to develop apps for the Android platform. How can apple beat this one if they have locked down their apps store? The great thing about App inventor is that it looks like it has been modelled on Scratch 'Blocks' of building scripts. My Grade 5 and 6's (some whiz kids lower) would love to get their hands on this. The potential for them to develop their own apps for perhaps an Android tablet or smart phone is enormous. Rich and authentic possibilities for learning. Have DEECD made a wrong choice in going with the ipad?

A class of young individuals ... like peas in a pod - 0 views

  • University of Melbourne primary education expert Jan Deans said schools were drawn to learning through play as a reaction to a crowded curriculum and the focus on national testing (NAPLAN).
    • Andrew Williamson
       
      I have witnessed a direct influence if national testing on our school curriculum. The constant pressure to lift results in the areas of maths and literacy is forcing some schools to create streamed maths groups. We have set up streamed maths groups in grades 2 - 6 and literacy groups from 3-6. The philosophy behind this is to target the specific needs of each group rather than trusting the teacher to create an effective differentiated learning environment.  The direct impact of such a set up is that the timetable becomes even more rigid. Students on the margins of learning levels miss out on the positive learning experiences of their peers. The nature of the Maths and literacy "hour" means that its very difficult to develop long term, deep and ongoing learning situations for students.

  • Students in Grades 3 and 4 this term will be investigating the factors which affect the survival of organisms living in the sea through our unit “Testing the Waters”. They will learn to distinguish between biotic and abiotic factors in the environmentand describe human influences which affect the survival of living things. We’ll be going on a fantastic excursion to Rickett’s Point to see some real sea life and talk to some local experts about our local marine environment in Melbourne’s Port Phillip Bay.
