Welcome! Join me as I reflect on my learning journey with Web 2.0 tools. I'm sure I will find bandwagons to jump on along the way. Let's enjoy the trip.

Inquiry Learning with Grade One and Two

In January 2012, I started to work with Melissa Poundmaker, a grade one and two teacher at King George Community School in Saskatoon. As a teacher-librarian, I had been asked to develop an inquiry unit with a teacher. We were asked to use technology in some way during our inquiry unit.

This afternoon, Melissa and I met to continue to plan for our on-going learning collaboration with her students. We have had such amazing conversations about our observations of learning throughout this unit. Today I purchased a Tiki Blue microphone. We used Audioboo to record some of our thoughts on our process of collaboration and learning together.

Each AudioBoo is only three minutes long (or shorter).

Melissa and I plan to continue our conversations about all the evidence of learning for her students. We are having a Learning Fair on April 9th in the afternoon in the King George LRC. Melissa's students will share their learning with their parents, community members, and other students in our school. Let us know if you would like to come to the Fair.
