    1. Interesting to me in a sense that this teacher uses a lot of creative resources in her classroom, incorporates ICT's (the wide web) to share with other teachers - which is helpful in a sense of gathering knowledgable and creative resources. Gives lots of insights into the classroom, and shares life as a teacher - and the resources she uses for her students in the classroom.

    Down under teacher is an Australian teacher's blog if the title has not gave it away for you. It appears to be particularly focused towards the Early Primary setting. She also experienced great difficulty getting in touch with other Australian teachers so you will find she has created a tab and encouraged other Australian teacher's to come forward with the names of their blogs.

  • chool begins here in Victoria on Tuesday. It is the first time in ten years that I have not spent the summer busily preparing for the new school year. That has been a strange feeling.
  • My daughter, Novalie, is 5.5 months old and I am absolutely loving motherhood. While I won’t be in the classroom this year, apart from some possible replacement teaching, I’m thankful that there are still ways to keep up with education.
  • There was a time, not so long ago, when maternity leave would mean you’re out of the ‘education loop’. Now, with blogs, Twitter and other online resources, the education community is at your finger tips.

Another note Kathleen was a team teaching partner to Kelly Jordan who has launched her own blog this year.

    Hi all - this blog has been created by an Australian teacher, she has compiled a list of other Aussie teachers and some of the creativity that these guys have is amazing. While a lot is to do with the younger years and not a lot of ICTs, it's a great way to share creative ideas to keep children engaged. I thought it was worth the mention!

  • It’s every teacher’s dream. Students are no longer writing for a grade or for their teacher. Instead, they are writing for their peers and generating their own topics. Can this really be possible?
  • Blogging has enabled my writers to discover their unique voices and uncover a true love of writing. It has given them a creative outlet where they can express themselves, challenge their writing skills, and build their self-esteem
  • I’ve reached out to my Personal Learning Network (PLN) on social media, solicited readers using the Twitter hashtag #comments4kids, found educators through S2S Blog Connect, and signed up to form partnerships with other teachers via Quadblogging.net.

    That got me thinking.. I have held the view that by giving children one to one laptops from grade 4 will just create a generation that don't know how to write..
  • djplaner on 07 Mar 12
     
    Tallyn, my wife is currently studying for a big test, one that will take 5 or 6 hours. One of her biggest concerns is having to write with pen and paper for that long. Something she rarely does and knows will cause great pain in her hand. Let alone the pain caused to the marker by having to try and read my wife's handwriting. In 50 to 500 times there will be people laughing hard at us for thinking the ability to write with a pen was essential.

    You can almost picture your grandchildren laughing at you for picking up a pen and paper to write your to do list can't you?? It is an exciting time we live in though:-)) Good luck to your wife.. she will need a hand massage after that sized written test..

      Students and teachers became motivated and engaged in literacy. Students were able to have a choice between typing their stories or writing them by hand. This task was also inclusive in regards to students who might have had learning difficulties.

Such an amazing experience for the child and the school.

    Kids brainstormed ideas, wrote rough drafts, edited with classmates and teachers and created their own illustrations. Some handwrote the final draft, while others chose to type up pages. 1 "Every student in the school had a voice - whether it was an ESL student who can't speak the language, or someone who has a learning disability - everybody has a page or a book that's their own," said Remedios. 6 "It made writing meaningful and purposeful." 2 It also got the school buzzing.

    A great resource to keep in mind to encourage writers.

    An awesome way to get kids involved with books - by creating thier own. Come to think of it, it worked for Kai too back in Yr 2.

    The students in Scott Jackson's eleventh grade American History class have almost no common knowledge about the country's early beginnings and important moments. His students at Brooklyn International High School are recent immigrants to this country who are learning English and how to be American school students at the same time.

    This software is currently being used at my children's school. It is like an electronic version of giving out 'stickers', etc for good behaviour. Each day I can see how well my children performed in the classroom and each week a report is generated and emailed to me. This is used in conjunction with an interactive whiteboard, where the children can touch their name/dojo character and give themselves a point for hard work, etc.

    Thought I would share, interesting idea for behaviour management using ICT. Hopefully more engaging for students

    Wow! That's a great idea. All students in any grade level like to be rewarded. I will share this link with the school I work at. Thanks!

    Love this idea! I will share with my school too

    Magical idea, Luv it. Will save a small fortune for teachers worldwide, as we tend to buy these incentives from our own back pockets in an attempt to engage kids in our classes. Even as a pre-service teacher the little buggers have already cost me......

    This teacher posts activities that incorporate ICT into her lessons and she comments on the responses from her students. There's a cool movie on a recent post regarding a student's perception on homework, quite funny! She also provides resources that can be used in her lessons, and these can be found on the her TeachersPayTeachers page.

    I am excited to share some of our math thinking we've been doing this week. I have to say, I love technology, especially when it works and having WiFi in my room. I asked the student students to bring in their iPod's yesterday so they could video tape each other finding expressions in their images they've created.
