Getting the start of a lesson right is such an important thing. If you don’t switch the students on right away then you can lose them pretty quickly. I’ve written previously about the importance of routines and in that post part of what I was saying was about the importance of…
First things first. As I started in my last periodic table post, it’s never just about the apps. End of. That said being guided around tried and tested apps from the classroom can be really helpful. This new periodic table looks at #STEAM apps, namely those that can link through…
First things first. It’s never just about the apps. End of. That said being guided around tried and tested apps from the classroom can be really helpful. With that in mind, back in 2014 I created my first periodic table of iPad apps. Little did I realise how popular it would…
