ANIMOTO

Wow, this is brilliant!! I can't believe how quickly I put together this test video; it was about 10 minutes! The result was more than I ever anticipated...I couldn't believe the fabulous video that I was presented with. I felt instantly hooked. IMAGINE what you'd get if you took your time and really planned it beforehand! WOW! It would be a fabulous tool for presentations aswell as photographic slideshows. The children could use it to create and present group work and as a teaching and learning tool, well the world's your oyster; just imagine how it could enhance your lessons!

Zondle - So Cool, So Engaging

Wow, just discovered Zondle! The site that turns questions into engaging children's games. My mind is a buzz with ideas...Could be used for a whole class quiz during the plenery or as a personalised learning tool, intervention activities or even homework activities as games can be embedded into school's Website or Learning Platform. Could also be useful for providig purposeful and meaningful activities during after school clubs. Explored lots of the Numeracy topics already created and played a couple of the recommended games to go with the topic questions then created a set of questions; I even made my own avatar!

My New Blog UPDATE!!

All sorted, up and running...Must say that i quite like it; lots of features that I haven't got this Blog, but "Tweeting" is much simpler here! So happy with the result. Now to enjoy using it!

Teaching Essentials

Wow! What a fabulous site Teaching Essentials is…Love the Reading and Writing Level Target and sub level sheets that can be printed for display. So child friendly with their use of child speak and visually engaging…Children can see at a glance where they are and what their next steps need to be. Not simply informative, but an empowerment tool, too.
The Reading and Writing Level Targets are just one of the many resources available to help engage learners and the organisation of the classroom. It’s certainly on my list for a revisit…Hopefully their Blog will keep me informed of new additions.

Manga High

Just checking out the recommended Maths Games based Website, Manga High…Anyone familiar with it? Would appreciate your thoughts,

Its a Book

I love it....Let me know what you think...

Problems, Problems, What A To Do!!!

Well, after all the hard work, preparing my new Blog to be accessible from school, which unfortunately, this one, which I love, isn't! The comments aren't working on my new Blog, a technical glich! What good's a Blog without comments? Not a lot...It looks wonderful and has some fab features and has received a lot of hard work, but, well, sadly, it's on hold, for a little while, until I can sort it out. So it's not that I've been out of touch, on the contrary I've been fully engaged and busy organising and setting up for the future enhancement of my Blog use for school.
