About Me

My photo
I am 28 year old mother of one who is finally taking action and changing my career/ following my dream. At present I am a Mother, Wife, Student, Case Manager and Maitre'd in that order! For the past 7 years I have been working as a Case Manager and Youth Worker with a focus on Training and Mentoring for early school leavers. It was doing this that got me thinking about teaching and how I would like to work with young people before they leave school. I would eventually love to work as a Guidence Counsellor and put all my years working as in Case Management to good use but that is a longer term goal and I am taking things one day at a time!A you can see from the title of this blog I love quotes! So I will finish up with a quote that I love from one of my favorite authors,which I think summarizes this course perfectly for me! "Experience: the most brutal of teachers. But you learn, my God do you learn.” C.S Lewis

Flickr in classroom, belated entry!



Here is my late entry of an example of how flickr can be used in class!(please refer to my posting "have you seen the light? flickr in the classroom) I found this video on YouTube, students have used flickr in this activity, a song which they compiled for a maths class. Great use of ICT'S, covers several KLA'S (Maths, English, The Arts, Technology) and is a perfect example of collaborative learning using Kearsley and Schniedermans relate, create, donate frameworks.
