Welcome to our room in 2008
Welcome back students to a new year of learning in Miss Wyatt’s class. We will be using a lot of technology in our room including a smartboard which allows us to improve our learning, work collaboratively and of course play some games. Try this one now - ghostblasters. Using google earth is also fantastic on the smartboard. Can you come up with some other great interactive sites to use with our smartboard?
Hopefully many of you will get a page of your own to do some blogging on. But first, we will have this class blog on which you will be expected to comment and create posts. If you get really wrapped up in blogging, I will negotiate with your parents and you about creating your own blog page. I will be asking other staff and the principal to also read and comment on your blogs so make sure they are relevant and well written.
The other form of Web 2.0 technology we will be using are wikis. You are sure to have used Wikipedia before, well we are going to create our own wiki during history lessons. We will also be inviting members of the local community to add information to our wiki - a great way to collaborate.
ms w im glad we may do blogging this year.

It has been a great start at school. I am looking forward to the rest of the year, especially blogging and computer studies. Thank you Miss Wyatt.
BS - What type of computer studies did you do at school last year?

Hey Miss W its good to have the smart borad up now after waiting for a long time. I think its really tricky to use. So I am really happy to be back at school it feels great to be with friends again. I really like your class its has new computers and a cool smart board we all can use. I also like all the hard work that we do with you well i think i will improve in lots of things this year in 2008.
