INTERACTIVE WHITEBOARDS
All classes have a Promethean Interactive Whiteboard installed, with the exception of Year 1, which has a mobile board. Teachers participated in initial Professional Development, but still felt unsure about how to maximise the full potential of the boards. A full day PD Day was provided to upskill the teachers in the features of the board, along with ways it can be used in the classroom.
Teachers create flip charts and utilize the Ideal Resources when teaching mathematics. They also have access to many numeracy programs, such as Targeting Maths and reinforcement games like Numbers Up. The workshop also reminded teachers about the mathematical tools available for use on the boards, such as compasses, rulers, graphing tools, dice, counters, protractors, etc.
