My few weeks of prac are coming to a closure, so I thought I’d do a quick post to update on the wonderful resources offered by the school including one to one I-Pads. Year 6 is the year of fun, inventive, interactive preparation for high school. As the weeks quickly flew by I have learnt so much, listing just a few things below.
- ICT is an enriched element that has shaped the way of learning for the school.
- As a one to one I-Pad school, technology plays a massive roll in lesson planning. Enhancing interactive learning experiences.
- Low ability students struggle to maintain focus with I-Pads, going off topic at several stages.
- The catch is students are responsible to charge them and if they don’t trouble can strike if no old-fashioned backup is provided.
- The Power of technology is insane, students enjoy the variety it offers to maintain engagement and variety in the classroom.
- An apple TV at the front of the classroom, allowing resources to be class ready for display brightens learning engagement.
I have had an amazing experience to interact with all the school offers. Over the three weeks, I have been able to introduce, teach and assess students in a natural disasters science unit. As nervous as it was, I am still alive and have enjoyed all the unit offered. Not only does this help me to grow my skills, knowledge and ability with ICT and unit planning I can confidently assess students.
I hope to re-enter the school at a later stage this year and enhance my learning as a Pre-Service Teacher. I look forward to sharing more professional experiences with you as my studies continue.
Below are a few photos to capture the memories.
Happy Reading,
Meghan 🙂
