Posted by Andy Roberts in : General , trackbackI work in the computer suite, where all the classes come for their ICT lessons. So all the children in the school recognise me - they call me ‘the Computer Man’ or ICT teacher.
With my past experience working with computers, I’m in a position to be able to help the class teachers to interpret the National Curriculum for ICT and make lesson plans that work with the increasingly sophisticated computer equipment which we all have to learn to get the most advantage out of. So I demonstrate appropriate computer skills to the children as a class, and then help them individually as they learn by themselves, and I go round during the activities and get them out of the unusual sticky situations they manage to find themselves in sometimes on the computers. One or two of the children also come along to the “Evening Sessions” ICT courses which I run at the neighbouring Winslade Estate Cyber Centre.
The school website is starting to look a bit dated, so I’m going to be looking at ways to bring it bang up to date with new simple publishing technologies, so it becomes a communication centre for the community and a place to celebrate some of the work that goes on inside the school.
Oh yes, and I play the guitar for the infants singing assemblies as well.
