As part of this phase Ann and I decided to do some work with the P1/2 children.  Up to now our work has all been with the older children but because I am working with the younger ones this year it was a good opportunity to give it a go.  Sometimes, as teachers, we inhibit our children by the tasks we give them and the boundaries we put around our lessons and for this reason I was very keen that we allowed the children the chance to explore their creative talents.

I was really worried that the children would not be willing or would be worried about using the computer to communicate with Ann, how foolish I was.  Just look at the them.  They jumped at the chance to come up and speak to her, they were confident in the activities they were asked to do and on several occasions today, they lifted the IPads spontaneously to take pictures of their work and what they were doing.
