 * //**This learning is important** because Problem solving strategies and Whole number are the basics for many math concepts. The students can use these skills to apply in other areas of learning within M// |||||||||||| //**WMS2.1** Asks questions that could be explored using mathematics in relation to Stage 2 content//

 * Time allocated for topic || The IPAD lesson went for an hour with a focus of Mathematics, number. During this time students were able to work both individually and in groups. Students were exposed to mathematical high order thinking applications that enabled them to use various mental strategies to solve problems. || * ||  ||
 * Student understanding of content || Students were exposed to the learning intentions before each lesson.I enjoyed listening to student feedback about their learning during lessons. I was able to pose questions and listen to student reflections and how they solved various problem solving questions. || * ||  ||
 * Opportunities for student reflection on learning || Each lesson required students to evaluate and reflect on their own learning.Students were continuously explaining how they solved problems and the strategies they used to help them. They were also able to identify ways in which they could improve their individual scores, e.g.students recognised that using one mental strategy was more effective with different applications. At the end of each lesson students were able to record their results and compare what they had received over a few lessons. || * ||  ||
 * Suitability of resources || The applications exposed to the students enabled them to challenge their own individual capabilities. The diverse range applications that students were given enabled them to use mental strategies and apply them in differnt ways. Students were able to solve challenging problems using various apps that enabled them to use their knowledge of mental strtaegies and high order thinking. || * ||  ||
 * Variety of teaching strategies || I was able to link the students background knowledge to the IPAD lessons. Students made connections to their prior knowledge and were able to put their learning into practice. They were exposed to many mathematical applications that enabled them to use their own knowledge in various situatioons. The IPAD lessons were student centred and enabled them to focus on their own learning by self-regulating in various ways. || * ||  ||
 * Integration of Quality Teaching strategies || Students were engaged in all lessons. After the lessons students were continually discussing and reflecting on what they had learnt during their IPAD experience. They also recommended mathematical applications and downloaded apps for their own personal use that demonstrated an extension of their own learning beyond the classroom. The lesson enabled students to self-regulate their own learning. || * ||  ||
 * Integration of ICTs || Students and teacher were exposed to IPADS and the wiki as a forum to document student and teacher learning and professional development. || * ||  ||
 * Literacy strategies used || N/A ||  ||   ||
 * Numeracy strategies used || Students were exposed to mathematical problem solving applications that enabled them to focus on the mental strategies for number. || * ||  ||
 * Literacy targets addressed || N/A ||  ||   ||
 * Numeracy targets addressed || School management plan- NAPLAN numeracy target. || * ||  ||

__// Classroom teacher Evaluation //__
Exposing students to problems that require high order thinking using various strategies that are suitable to all students. ||
 * **What have I learned to do? (Hardware or ICT skills)**
 * Use the Wiki, IPADS**
 * How has this impacted on the classroom?**
 * Students were engaged and were challeged using various math mental applications.**
 * How is the class using ICT?**
 * The class is using IPADS with a focus on Mathematics for one hour per week. The IPAD lesson focused on challenging the students using various apps that enabled high order thinking.**
 * How can this be implemented in my classroom practices?**
