What have the lead teachers been doing? · Willow has created a wiki for her class. Their school is revising and refining their rubrics. · Molly has started a reflective learning journey blog and dabbled in Promethean Planet for learning activities and activboard tutorials. · Sue has been keeping regular meeting slots with her team on ICT. She has been working on activboard activities in her classroom. · Lyn sent out all the hot maps to the ICT Lead Teachers. Thank you Lyn! Staff met to discuss use of activboards and decided that it wasn’t any good for teachers and classes to observe lessons, they need to actually take the class, so the teachers and children are involved in the use of the board. Maori teacher has been approached to come up with ways in which to increase Maori achievement through the use of ICT. · Jackie has been revising and refining the SOLO rubrics. She has set up a wiki for her class. Funding from FOTS has provided the school with activboards, flip videos and webcams.
