Room 10 RBS

This year Room 10 is getting an interactive whiteboard – sorta – we’re getting a mimio which is attached to the existing whiteboard but can act like a full-blown IWB. Along with that will come a brand-new data projector.

I am going to do some training at the Learning@School conference next week to learn about some activities I can do with the mimio.

The best thing about IWBs is that it’s not a teacher-only tool – so the students in Room 10 will be learning how to use it too.

It’s a new year – last year’s students have moved on to new classrooms and new teachers and I have a new group of 30 students to introduce to blogging.

Along with blogging we will all be going on a journey learning about IWB (the mimio kind) this year.

My holidays were spent in very cold temperatures (-22C to 0C) and learning about snow – shovelling it, sweeping it, walking through it (boots/snow shoes) and even driving in/through/on it. I discovered that snow isn’t so much of a problem as the snow-turned-into-ice-and-lying-6″-thick-on-the-road is!
