Reflections from last week:
What went well: Used explain everything with a small group of boys. They would have loved more time to explore. I would love to begin using my site but will continue to develop over the next few weeks and aim to introduce in Term 4. Have stepped out of comfort zone and signed up to Chapter Chat T4 and will support my Hub to participate.
What hasn’t made sense: Want to start using site but having technical issues with laptop and chromecast. Will use the next few weeks to set up and get set onto ipads.

To be CONNECTED you have to SHARE.
Connecting can be verbal or using body language.
Because we are time poor. There are a variety of opportunities for people to share. Face to Face is the most important. Connecting through facebook, twitter, blogs and Google+ (if in the cluster them you are linked in and will get updates) All the puzzle pieces work together.

This was the biggest learning today. The creating has developed my confidence and I have really enjoyed the creating aspect. I will continue to develop my skills around Draw and slides. The creating has also helped my sharing within my blog but also with connecting with others at the DFI.
Good on you Rachel for taking so much in from today. Your animation looks great and all the tricks you were shown have enabled it to be played on your blog successfully. Hopefully some of these tools will be helpful when you create with your students and they will be able to embed their creations on their blogs as successfully as you have.
