HPS iPad Edmodo group
Jen has kindly set up our own iPad Edmodo group as we continue the roll out of the new iPads to primary classes. (Thanks Margaret!!) We hope everyone joins, because this will provide a forum for us to ask for help, recommend apps and share our ideas.
There is also a new iPad information sheet that everyone should read please and it can be found on my RFF site on the Teachers 'How To' page. This info sheet also has the code to join our Edmodo group.

- Here is a 'Number of the Day' resource from Simon Job's site that will prove very helpful.
- Please keep revisiting the 'Mathematics Shed' for lots of great ideas and activities!
- Further to Jen's email about NAPLAN resources she had put together in Notebooks, here are some more Notebook resources shared by Joshua Stephens on David Burke's site.
- There are also some other new websites I have added to our Numeracy Resource page, so please have a look every now and then.

Sydney Region Schools - ICT Support Site
I particularly love this poster 'Are You a Digital Citizen? redesigned by Stu Hasic and published on the SR site.
Free iPad Apps
Here's one below that I've downloaded for my iPads today that has gone free today (1/3/14) until tomorrow night. It looks good for stop motion animation!

To Finish Off . . . What Makes KF Happy At School?
KF are the first class to have all their 'Publish To Consent' forms returned so their work can be published for all to see! Could you please help chase up any outstanding forms so I can publish more of our wonderful students' work on the 'Students' Work' page on our website. Thanks heaps!
