[|Allanah's Edublog] || I found it very helpful to focus on one aspect of ICT that I could use and her step by step guide was so easy I have already started. || || Getting chn to ask 'Fat' questions rather than 'Skinny' questions. Set up an 'I wonder....' board. Chn ask a question and then the class finds ways to answer the question. Setting up a 'News and Views' wall. Great activities to encourage and develop the ways children can ask good questions. || || The other search engines like Kosmix that organise info for you. The internet tutorials website-wow! have already accessed that one. This has made me consider what we currently do and use, what we could be using. Derek's discussion around the lack of ability children have to use graphic organisers has caused me to look at the examples he suggested Useful for sharing with parents. || ||

 * Barbara - Taking good photos || [[file:Taking Photos in the Classroom.ppt]] ||  || Send the camera home with individual children to use for reporting and developing question skills from the photos they have taken. ||   || Show the children what is or isnt a good, clear photo by comparing their photos. || [[image:Cluster_day_July_010.JPG width="223" height="166"]] ||
