__Our Class Blog__
We have used the blog to discuss our values, linked to the key competency of Self Management: - resilience - orderliness - organisation and the other entry This is what we think about Learning.

We have also used our class blog to showcase our holiday writing to our school community. Interacting with Mr Mac via the comments was highlight for the kids. See below for links to some of our art work. Students are growing to understand the value and enjoyment that comes from reading and responding.

To share our learning in maths we have used voicethread and made photostories. We have mainly been working on number knowledge and strategies at each group's numeracy stage. These activities were used as assessment pieces for reviewing work and assessing strategy levels.

__Our Class Wiki__
We have used our class wiki to support class learning, this includes resource pages to support text types we are writing and reading such as Instructions

If researching, we use these embedded websites (click here) so children have no need to 'google' or surf anywhere than is not suited to their needs.

The use of the online tools assisted the children in identifying line and shape to emphasise when they sketched their self portraits.
