Term 2 Week 2

Completed my first week as a K-6 ICT teacher working with Loreto College Junior School. I will be working 2 days a week over next 2 terms with each class integrating technology into the teaching programs. This is a great challenge as I come from 10 years secondary school experience background. The technology ideas will be easy, but adjusting to the students levels will be the most immediate challenge for me. The first week teaching has been a rich learning curve that I will write about the next few months. Currently I am working through the individual Units of Work that each Year level has for the form, looking at the best projects and activities where we can utilise the power of technology. I have found the Junior School environment a breath of fresh air and the staff very warm and welcoming. I begin my first contract with St Augustines Brookvale working with Middle School Staff implementing an ICT Professional Learning Program over next two terms so that should be very interesting too.
