Did I say I was done with my tasks 1, 2 and 3? Except, I don't think they are done with me!
I want to talk about my expectations. INNOVATIVE - yes, please! CREATIVE - yes, please! ICT - YES, please!!! So, the questions is 'HOW?' Today I talked to my students about things we've done this school year and things we want to do (or will do) next year. When I asked them to give few examples of interesting lessons, I could hear lots of noise. It wasn't an unpleasant noise, but very enthusiastic noise. (can I still call it noise?) I could hear 'Kahoot!', 'QR codes', 'Stop Motion Animations', 'Radiodrama', 'Tricider'... And I had to stop them. (they were getting too loud). I said that we could do few more, but one student interrupted, 'Oh please not now. We have too much to do at the end of the school year! And the external testing starts next week. Please let's do it in September?' So I agreed...I just wanted to show them a sample of AR and having my colleague Milena Ignjatova playing with her 2nd graders with Quiver, I showed them just a picture, that turned 3D. And what do you know! The same student that objected asked if we could do it tomorrow!!! (I really have to laugh) Isn't that great!? Isn't that what we all strive for as teachers: To have our students ask for more? Now my mind is full of ideas, but NO, I won't start anything new this week. I'll just keep them interested all summer with short presentations of what's to come. Because I'm mean like that! *insert demonic laughter here* Let me just refer you to one of the posts in another course. I promise, you won't regret it. Click HERE. Now I'm done with tasks 1, 2 and 3.

What to say that I haven't said already except that I have great expectations of this LE.
But looking at the pages, I get confused: I don't see a clear schedule, all the pages are visible and at hand, but some of the links don't work. I think I should start reading more carefully! It must be me. In my defense, the school ends next week, it's external testing time and I have tons of things to do - all in a week! And now tasks 1, 2 and 3 are done! I promise to pay more attention with the other tasks. |
