Dawn's conference notes

Thanks to Dawn Halybone who has sent in her notes she made during the conference and Teachmeet.

Website updates!!!!
Here are some fab websites that I have found – hopefully they will prove useful!

http://www.jumpcut.com/ – enables you to share photos and videos – you can also re arrange adverts from top name brands – a useful link to Literacy perhaps?

http://www.earth.google.com/ – when the new system gets put in this will be on the system – a fantastic tool for Geography and used in conjunction with Flickr enables you to ‘fly’ to your destination.

http://www.flickr.com/ - a fantastic photo sharing website – I am currently setting up a group site – similar to blogging but will enable us to upload art work – this site enables you to do amazing things – can create a galaxy, put post it notes on photos – really worth checking out! It also has some great groups – classroom displays – lots of ideas!, six word story – does what it says in the name, tell a story in 5 frames – again does what it says on the tin!
http://www.thinkuknow.co.uk/ - a website that gives advice and lessons on e safety!

http://www.gogivers.org/kids_home.cfm a great PHSE resource with lesson plans and ability for children to create timelines and vote for school councillors.

http://www.classtools.net/ – some excellent ‘games’ for IWB – includes a fruit machine which randomly selects childrens names for answering questions and my favourite a timer that counts down to tv theme tunes including mission impossible and Dr who!
