Term 3 and all is well!
Looking back over the two terms the progress made by both student and teacher has been phenomenal. Class 20 has gone from using the iPad to simply take a photo to now using it in all learning areas within the curriculum. The final area being 'Inquiry' where our wonderful Mrs Belt has designed a site the students access via a QR code. The site has been built to introduce the children to the countries involved in the Commonwealth Games and to the sports they are being represented in. Not only is the site wonderfully interactive it can also be continually updated depending on the sports and accomplishments of the day.
