Skoolz Out!

In my role supporting teachers develop confidence and good pedagogy in their teaching with ICT, I aim to provide you with a weekly update of some of the gems I have found on the internet for my staff. Rather than post a page with links to a thousand items which you then have to spend time sifting through, I have created a resource of library which I have individually checked and deemed worthy of making the list. As teachers, we just don’t have the time, but by sharing, we can all help each other out.

So check back regularly for more updates, and please share any worthwhile activities you find with me for these posts.

By clicking on a link you will be taken to a preview of the activity. If you like the look of it, click on the picture of the page to be sent to the site.
