Thanks to Jonathan Lurie on Twitter who sent me some links to a collection of primary maths games hosted by Oswego City School District in New York. These are fantastic to use on the IWB for lesson starters or plenaries. Go here and add it to your bookmark list now!

One More Try

I’m going to have one more attempt to get this blog running smoothly on WordPress.
I’ve reinstalled the files I need, and created a new database. I’m hoping this will fix the odd issues I was having when I added new posts. I’m going to leave things for a day or so to see if it [...]

Apologies

Apologies for messing some of you around over the last few days. I tried to move this blog across to WordPress. I’ve done this with other blogs and had no problems at all.
I managed it all OK, and everything seemed to be working. But I could not add long blog posts – I kept getting [...]

Expect some new posts here soon. Until then, don’t forget the Whiteboard Challenge.

Seesmic

This is a test video from Seesmic. Seesmic is a nifty website that lets you record videoblogs straight onto the Seesmic site, and also record video comments on other peoples posts.
Picture quality is quite compressed, but then if you want better quality then use something like Youtube to host your videos. I guess Seesmic is [...]

MirandaMod Unconference

MirandaMod is an informal, loosely structured unconference of like-minded educators to share ideas about the use of technology to inspire others. This will be the first of what we hope will become a [...]

Search and Mobile

A while back I added a Search feature to the sidebar of the blog. Or at least I thought I had, but it seemed to stop working not long after I added it.
Anyway, I’ve been playing again and have tweaked the search tool and this time I think it is working. You can search by [...]
