Students focussed on problem solving and number. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">* Used Math trainer. || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">*There was a need to pre-set settings to easiest level for the kids. Learning intention was set for students that we would be learning about addition and subtraction skills. || Lesson 2 Integration 10 - 11am 3/4N || <span style="color: #548dd4; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Integration phase <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">* Using math apps to integrate into math whole class teaching. Focus on problem solving and number activities || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Using this app the students were first led into discussion about math strategies such as compensation, decade, jump method prior to introducing the app again for the second time.The challenge was to this time around, record scores and try to improve accuracy and time.Question was posed with those students who had achieved improvement ;"What strategy did you use that helped you improve?". This led to a large discussion about the relevance of strategies and how this doesaid in mathematical recall and problem solving. || Lesson 2 Integration 11.20 – 12.20 5/6M || <span style="color: #548dd4; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Integration phase <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">* Focusing on literacy. Using the apps Story Kit || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">This was an introduction into the app Storykit. Students were shown the Learning intention of creating a story with visual and audio in relation to Fairytale narratives. Thus backward mapping what the end product would look like.Groups were self selected and students were encouraged to explore the featues of the app. Some direction was given as to how to start a new book. Accessing new photos or those from gallery. How to place these in paint and add features as well as how to record their voices in narrative voice. || Lesson 2 Integration 12.20 – 1.10pm 2V || <span style="color: #548dd4; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Integration phase <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">* Using literacy and the app Sock Puppets to integrate into Readers Theatre || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Given the introduction of how to use this app, it was essential to pose an easy scenario so that the students could focus on the actual learning of how to use the application. Therefore the scenario was set of using the value of the month'Responsibility', use this to create a short play on how to show this, what it looks like and how we are responsible.Students chose various scenarios such as being responsible at home to clean my bedroom. Responsibility at school to keep our class tidy. Responsibility for younger brothers and sisters. Responsibility for our property.The app tools involved students recognising the movement between characters by tapping each one. The ability to enlarge characters and shrink them. || TPL ||  || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Time set aside to work on Parent ICT workshop to create a Parent survey on specific ICT focus to indicate what our community needs are. || Lesson 3 Integration 9 – 10am 1A || <span style="color: #548dd4; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Integration phase <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">* Using math apps to integrate into math group rotations. Students focussed on problem solving and number. <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">* Used Math trainer and Rocket maths || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Time rotations meant that students rotated around for 15 minutes to each math station. In class these rotations included a group with teacher to work on counters and cards. A computer group using the Circus math website and other applications on the PC's in the classroom as well as two iPad groups. One group worked on the Math Trainer app looking at adding and how to count on.The second iPad group selected to use the Rockets app. Our specific focus with this group was 3D shapes. Time was used at the start of each group to focus students on the Learning intentions and a recap over the vocab and strategies to use when applying this to the iPad app. The Mathtrainer focused on counting on from the largest number while the Rockets group looked at the properties of some basic 3D objects || Lesson 3 Integration 10 – 11am 3/4N || <span style="color: #548dd4; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Integration phase <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">* Using math apps to integrate into math group rotations.

We had asked the students to also record their three scores to gather data of improvement.This class also used the Rocket application on harder settings to work on Intermediate and Advanced levels which had the students work on Money, multiplication, time and 3D shapes. || Lesson 3 Integration 11.20 – 12.20 5/6M || <span style="color: #548dd4; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Integration phase <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">* Using literacy app integrate into writing processStory kit and A Novel Idea || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Now that the students were aware of how to use the StoryKit app and had ironed out questions of text and audio. We introduced the app A Novel idea as this allowed the students to analyse elements of narratives such as character development, tension lines, settings etc. Students worked on developing storylines. || Lesson 3 Integration 12.20 – 1.10pm 2V || <span style="color: #548dd4; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Integration phase <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">* Using literacy app integrate into readingSock Puppets || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">The classroom teacher had been working with her class on Readers Theatre which we thought fit well with this app. Classroom discussion recapping over voice use in reading theatre had students discuss flow, volume, expression and tone.This was then followed up with the students reading a short play about a Cat and Dog arguing. The scenario allowed a lot of discussion about the tone.Amusing was the fact that students had surprised us with creating large and small characters when they were arguing to emphasise the fact that they were trying to debate who was more important, while another group had the discussion change scenery from day to night to show that they had argued all day and night || Lesson 4 Integration 9 – 10am 1A || <span style="color: #548dd4; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Integration phase <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">* Focus on Numeracy using the app MathMaster and Math Trainer || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Students who were now exposed to the three apps were set the task of recording three attempts and discussing what strategies had to give scores to the teacher and look at improvement. One on one attention was needed in cases to explain how to count on and count past algorithms to aid in the math process. || Lesson 4 Integration 10 – 11am 3/4N || <span style="color: #548dd4; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Integration phase <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">* Focus on Numeracy using the app MathMaster, Math trainer and Equate it || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Students who were now exposed to the three apps were set the task of recording three attempts and discussing what strategies they used that would help them improve their scores. || Lesson 4 Integration 11.20 – 12.20pm 5/6M || <span style="color: #548dd4; font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Integration phase <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">* Using literacy app integrate into writing processStory kit and A Novel Idea <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Introduced noteable and infinote to aid in the brainstorming of ideas || <span style="font-family: 'Arial','sans-serif';">Students working in groups collaboratively developing storylines.
