If you love your fonts this tool is for you! Word Mark it allows you to type your desired text and the preview it in every font available on your computer. This definitely saves time searching through your fonts, highlighting and changing for every possible font. You can even select the fonts you like best and use the filter tool to compare them side by side.

To supplement plenty of `hands on activities' you might like to try these apps. 1) Think 3D free (free) 2) Tap, Tap blocks (free) Some ideas - * use reflector on your smartboard to mirror the ipad screen. Create a shape, rotate to a given perspective. Students use manipulatives to recreate what they think the original shape is. * Use the camera tool to take photos of the same shape from multiple perspectives (using manipulatives or one of the apps above). Save the pics to your camera roll. Use pic collage to create a collage of your shape and label the different views. See below. Leave a comment and share your ideas!
As we know, Year 7 and 9 are already implementing the Mathematics K-10 Syllabus. The post below highlights some of the concepts that the students may not have learned in Year 6, but are required to have an understanding of in Year 7. It would be an idea for Stage 3 teachers to take some time to address these concepts or at the very least to introduce the students to the language eg. Cartesian plane You might also like to spend some time investigating the resources on the blog which were shared at the Driving Curriculum session held in Hornsby. These include Maths, English, Science and History presentations from the day. See also #curricdriver on twitter for tweets from the day.
1. Epic - books for kids NB: If you decide to use Epic then you need to make sure that you sign up for the teachers account (free) before installing the app. Just go to the website to do this. (I found this via @joycevalenza). 2. Unite for Literacy (Found via @joycevalenza) NB: Use the 'Add to home screen' option to make this site available on your ipad. 3. Free Guided Reading (Shared via Tracey). Can you suggest any other sites?
