Getting Ready for the Return...

Hello Everybody,
I expect you're all busy getting ready for the return to school, next week; thinking about it, many of you may have already returned to the classroom, and will be getting to know your new class. I am hoping that, upon our return, my blog is met with interest, by my colleagues and at least generates some good comments and reviews. So too, and more importantly, I am hoping that everyone finds it worthwhile and useful, and maybe offers some suggestions for its development, and requests for resources for their, classrooms.
There are many new and exciting ideas beginning to emerge on The Classroom Carousel, now, many of which develop the use of, and assist the purposeful embedding of ICT. Some links may appear to duplicate the ideas of others, this is deliberate and allows for individuality of both practitioners and children, when working as a whole class, in groups, pairs or as individual learners. A one size fits all idea is not the aim or purpose of the resources, identified, on The Classroom Carousel, but one that is supportive of variety, choice and individuality. It is hoped that The Classroom Carousel becomes a resource within itself, that supports the needs of practitioners working with ICT at all levels; whether that be merely for links to printed display requisities or new ideas for developing the use of ICT with purposeful applications to engage learners.
