Mr H || Students worked on a series of rotational activities with an assigned focus. We organised the 2 grades into 4 groups and then had the following plan- 15-20 minutes of explaination of groups and also detailing what to do in each activity during the session. First rotation went for around 35 minutes then back to the floor and then we moved to the next series of rotations. We spent 15 minutes at the end for FEEDBACK promoting the students voice. 1. IWB - using a variety of interactives we used the IWB software to discuss what we found and use images and text to display our ideas and thinking. We saved the file for the group which they can continue in the next series of rotations. 2.People Who Help US PowerPoint - we went through the processes of Logging in then opening the Computer, Common, Rotations folder then the PowerPoint - we saved the file into our folders with our names on it. We then worke on typing in the cover with Shift for capitals and then worked on typing in the KWL slide what we KNOW in sentences eg. Teachers help us learn. We wrote on whiteboard to help students who had difficulty with the literacy. 3.Hectors World - we had the students open the Word docuemnt and then make their way to the Link with CTRL and Click. We then logged in and selected EPISODE 1- we focused on getting 3 points written in our Inquiry Books about what we saw and learned. 4. Construction - students constructed using the cut out activity sheet and used stick pins -they coloured in and wrote on the back of the character. We may use these for speech bubbles and role play in future sessions. ||  ||   || First rotation went for around 35 minutes then back to the floor and then we moved to the next series of rotations.

I liked it because we got to customise our character and then we had to draw eyes and mouth. 2.People Who Help US PowerPoint - we went through the processes of Logging in then opening the Computer, Common, Rotations folder then the PowerPoint - we worked on typing in the cover with Shift for capitals and then worked on typing in the KWL slide what we KNOW in sentences eg.
