Once agian we attended this PD together, but this time with a teacher from the SEU who had just started using iPads as part of her daily teaching practice.

We held it in the resource centre, iPads, iPodsBeeBots, NIntendo DS, Wii console, IWB with LP objects, there was alot of learning, sharing, creating and reflecting going across different age groups with varying degrees of knowledge and interest areas. Once again the children gave written feedback.

Lots of discussion and negative comments about c2c and how it will work.

Many staff members are feeling very stressed about working with c2c units and having to access the Learning place and online environments as a matter of course during their daily teaching.

All classrooms from 4-7 now have their own data projector (one with and IWB) There are only 3 classrooms in the school without their own wihiteboard now, but these classrooms manage to share but this is becoming increasingly difficult when trying to implement c2c smoothly.
