A really good phonics based program to teach reading, writing and spelling to 3-8 year olds

Mr P's blog shares creative ideas to raise standards across the curriculum using technology. He also uses Instagram's social media platform to post pictures and short videos 'Time Saving Tech Tips'. These videos are quick and easy guides to help teachers save time and utilise technology to its potential in the classroom!

just downloaded binumi and tinkering with it and it's a great app! :)

Hello everyone, I just wanted to share with you this website called 'ICT in Everyday Learning: A Toolkit for Teachers'. This website draws on the 'TPACK' framework and provides information for teachers regarding ICT and pedagogy. The website makes explicit links between pedagogy, the Australian Curriculum, and the use of ICT to enhance pedagogy and facilitate student learning. In researching different ICTs to include in my table for Assessment Task 1, I found the 'Technology: Tools and Devices' section very useful! This section provides links to a range of ICTs across different learning areas. It was interesting to browse through these ICTs and examine which ones 'enhance' teaching and learning and which ones have the potential to 'transform' teaching and learning. I hope you find this website helpful!

Thanks for sharing this fabulous resource, Emily! I have just accessed this website, and I feel that I have accessed a new world of ICT information that is both practical and realistic to implement in the classroom. Kind regards, Todd

here is an article on iPads in early childhood, study carried out in an Early Childhood Education service catering for children from 3 months to 5 years.

Thanks for sharing! My professional experience will be in a Preschool setting so it is wonderful to see how other Preschool educators have been integrating ICTs and a rationale behind their use. I've read a few articles now regarding ICT in Preschool settings an it is interesting to note that most have been from NZ! The importance their country places on ECE is amazing and obvious from these articles! Very high quality practice and passionate educators it seems. Emma

Cool Tools for Schools - the title says all :)

Interesting

Really creative learning experience ideas, using ICT to transform learning.

There are so many great ways to use this ICT tool and this Padlet outlines some of these ideas.

This is awesome, I used Padlet in the classroom during the first week of my ICT prac and it worked like a charm. After each session I taught, the students had to think of something they learnt in the lessons I taught and add their note on the wall under the relevant topic. We even completed a get to know me Padlet wall and some of the notes were so sweet. I have my mentor interested in Padlet now and she is going to look into how she can incorporate it into her classroom. So thankyou for this amazing share.

Not a bad resource to use! Will give this a try with my Year 1 students next week who are learning to count back!

I found this one great as well. http://www.primarygames.co.uk/pg2/splat/splatsq100.html
