Work in Schools

March 30 to April 9 2009 I will be teaching in a Year 5/6 class. I am going to be experimenting with iPods, Wii, PSP and all sorts of other gadgets. Watch this space for my blog!

Two Days in a Year 3/4 class

I was invited to teach a Year 3/4 class for 2 days in 2008 in Manurewa. Teachers were timetable to come in and observe me. I was put into a computer lab for the two days where all the children had access to a computer. I ran their normal daily programme but used computers for everything. This is a blog of what happened over the two days. The photos to the right are photos that the children took. I did a unit with them 'How Kids take great photos!'
