More energy as we waited excitedly for Naomi to join us! The children seem to have a sense of the experience being  a special one  and  it was coming to life.  They know Naomi now.

I wanted to utilise the interactive whiteboard more in the sessions and particularly wanted to get using the drawing functions during the class activities. We both decided to give it a go.

As well as continuing to work on our books, we would also be making print plates with circles  and lines

This would be the focus on the Collaborate page too.
SPOTS DOTS, LINES  AND  STRIPES as Naomi  called it.  This time the children would give Naomi  instructions as to where she should place the spots and stripes. I showed them how to enlarge the dots. They loved this!

Activities running alongside one another’                                                                                                       Dots and lines were moved round the whiteboard while at the same time they were being placed with great thought onto their printing plates. Naomi was chatting to individuals a lot during the session.

I am amazed that during one Virtually There session so much was going on and I had planned and willingly agreed to it!
I suppose that’s the thing with V.T. You wait and see what happens and how it all goes.  You try not to curtail things – instead observe  how the children manage and then respond to  where they  want take us next.
BUSIER BUT SLOWER There was a nice easy flow to the session.

A REAL GOOD VIBE IN OUR  CLASSROOM.

Another work space  had been created up at board.

Happy to be getting the hang of it again.

Yes, a better connection established.
