Welcome to my professional learning blog. I aim to share my learning experiences and how they help me to improve the classroom environment and how I teach. I look forward to seeing how my learning and development will impact on the acceleration of learning for my students.

Google L1 Session 1 - Using Technology in the Classroom
The way students and teachers can collaborate through Google has been an interesting turn in education. Children can work on the same project on different pages or the same page in their own space. They are no longer rubbing elbows and squabbling for space.
Google Maps students can locate places and track where characters head or use them to plot trips working out which is the quickest way and does the bus take it. Creating discussion on why or why not.
I enjoy using maps to help plot the adventures of characters in my novels and locate places they can or could use, including local public facilities.
Comments on student work and being resolved when they have read it. This in turns sends a notification where I can then look and see what changes they have made following the advice given all this happening in real time.
Blogging events and work the students are proud of, so parents and the community can view and comment on their learning. Including students from other schools through Tuhi Mai Tuhi Atu.
Class website providing access to work and practise activities 24/7.
As each new challenge is shared with the students they are accepting challenges and becoming more resilient. By teaching students to respect themselves they learn to respect others and protect themselves while online.
As Technology changes and we adapt there will always be questions. So it is good to know and remember we don't have to ask a person. Google Help and Google Search provide answers even for the experts.
