Digital Technologies Update

We have been learning how to use Google Apps for Education. Today we learnt how to make a new slide show. We are learning new computer skills all of the time. 


We know that when we are online, we respect ourselves, each other and our environment.  

We have also been learning about Puppet Pals. We are excited about using this app to be creative with what we are learning.

Connecting and Collaborating

Our focus this term is collaborating. Our Year 3 students have been helping our younger students to use Google Apps for Education (GAFE). Our Year 1 and 2 students have their own folders in our shared account. We are writing for our project, "If you learned here." We had a great morning connecting with people that we don't usually work with.

Year 3 Technology afternoon

Some students in Year 3 have been logging into their Worser Bay Google Accounts for the first time. Students have taken home our Acceptable Use of Technologies Agreement and have discussed how to be a good digital citizen with their parents or caregivers.

Staying safe online runs through everything that we do when using digital technologies.


Students have been learning how to log into their accounts and to send an email.

Google Apps for Education- Year Three children will soon have their own accounts

Dear Parents and Caregivers,

Google Accounts have been successfully set up for the children in the seniors.  Setting up Google Accounts for Year 3 children now assists with the transition from the juniors to the seniors in 2015.


A major focus that underlies everything is digital citizenship. Students have taken home the WBS Acceptable Use of Technologies, developed by them and their teachers. They will have discussed it with you and it has been signed and returned to school. Safety is paramount and we take this very seriously. Please talk with your child’s teachers if you have questions.


Here is a link to the agreement:
Using technology in the classroom


Year 3 children, who have signed our acceptable use of technologies agreement, will be set up with Google Accounts before the end of Term 2.

We are excited about the opportunities that will prepare our children for a future that will be very different to our own.

Thanks,

Tautoru Team
