A Window into Year 6

Time for a sneak peak at life in the Year 6 learning spaces...

Students may choose to read eBooks during silent reading time. eBooks have additional functions such as iBooks' built-in dictionary, highlighting tools and a Search function to look for words and terms in context.
Some eBooks also have multimodal features such as image manipulation and video features to assist with comprehension of meaning.
Kira has provided this retrieval chart. She has used one of the graphic organisers in the Tools4Students app to organise her ideas and information. These notes can now be used to structure a piece of writing or oral presentation, or to make a more informed judgement about an issue.
The SMARTboard allows teacher and students to access and annotate documents while the class views the processes being demonstrated.

Students can use the whiteboard to share their thought processes as well. Often students will capture a photograph of the whiteboard for later reference.

The SMART Notebook app allows students to view the teacher's lessons on their iPads as well. They can review the content as many times as they need to, away from the classroom and outside school hours.
