Magazine - Keep working at your pages, I have seen a few and they look great. Remember A4! There are already a few pages in the shared folder, have a look if you are looking for some inspiration. The shared folder is St Mary's School Magazine 2017

Padlet is one of my favourite online collaborative tools. This update that came through http://practicaledtech.com/ makes it more interactive for students. Not only can you now turn on commenting but there is a quick like and grade tool. Students can like each others contributions.

Remember in the Padlet settings you can turn off editing after it's finished being used so it can stay visible on your blog but not get any more posts. This just means you don't have to monitor it once you've locked it down.

Here is a site that some passionate educator has made, it has links to videos he's made to show Maths strategies and also some digital Breakouts. https://sites.google.com/view/mldavidson/math-strategies

School devices

Just a heads up that these will be collected in near the end of the year. Please make sure you are ready for this and that the devices are clean and with their cords.

Google Educator certification
