Class resource for behaviour management reinforcement and tracking

This is a great tool...I have tested on my own kids lol. Just received an email recently stating that this app can now be used "school wide" as opposed to just in one classroom. Therefore teachers can share behaviour management strategies throughout the school.

This is a great ICT to record your screen and then share/podcast, etc. Works on Windows and Mac systems and its FREE!

This is a great idea with many educational uses. And it's free...fantastic!

Ashley Azzopardi is a year 5 primary school teacher who is a year 5 teacher from Sydney. Her writing its not only inspiration but also is relevant to my teaching context. She talks about how she loves students sense of humor and this making her teaching experience enjoyable.

Ashley is a Year 5 primary teacher. Ashley shares her philosophy and purpose on her blog as well as a link to the Year 5 class Blog where the students post what they have been doing in class and you are able to comment for them to read!

Thanks sharing this blog. Gives some insight in to a Year 5 class and how this platform can be used by the student's also to share.

I found this Clip on YouTube and find it very interesting. It could also be helpful in the first assignment.

Good overview of what is wrong with learning styles.

Signed my kids up to reading eggs about two weeks ago and am already seeing an improvement with my 5 year old's reading and phonic understanding. Great website. I had to pay to join but worth the money.

Hi Reading eggs is a great resource which I have on my "Wish list'" for work. I have signed my youngest up and his interest in learning has grown as well as his improvement with reading and phonic understanding. Bec

Hi, Reading Eggs is fantastic. I have seen it used whilst I was on practicum and the students were in the computer lab and working at their own pace. It was engaging and levelled at their ability, which I found to be the best feature of the program. As they learn they progress to the next level. Great literacy program. Thanks, Gianna

ICT and the Early Years

Hi, I liked reading your article about bringing ICT into the early years education and how it can work as another teacher. In Australian schools as most pre-service teachers and if you are a parent would probably know. The children are using Reading Eggs and Matheletics. My children are in years 1 and 3 and have found these programs easy to follow and navigate through the levels with a lot of success in their learning. They can also log-in on our home computer to extend their learning further. Programs such as these are a great tool in encouraging the skills of reading and learning maths without overloading them with too much computer time.

Integration of ICT into Classroom Teaching

I like how the article explained co learning and the benefits of being open to students help and advice. I personally was taught how to present power point years ago by a nine year old.

Very interesting theory I had not considered or heard of. I do believe a lot of the time students are set up to fail in the "test" environment. However I need to do some more research as I'm wondering about the basics of literacy and numeracy and how this all fits together. I can see huge benefits for special needs, and like he says, we all have "special needs" in certain areas.

Enjoyed the video showing how technology can teach children in a fun and engaging way to learn but also requiring them to engage in real life problem solving, writing and reflection. Interesting how they chose to access the program from home too. That says a lot. I thought that this would be more middle years teaching. Do you think this could be used in Primary?

Here is a link to some great apps that can be used in a HPE setting. Much better than dragging the lap top down to the oval

Virtual clouds are a fantastic source of ICT. It has allowed people to share, save and backup all their information, all over the world. The internet is amazing. What will people come up with next?!

A perfect reminder about practical physical items in the classroom.
