Lots has been happening lately. I start at a new school with my own Stage 1 class this term for the rest of the year. I’m really excited to be a EAfS & a Connected Community school. I am looking forward to learning lots from the IL. Pics of my new room! #ACUEDU_p #ruralteaching

When the school computers are out of action for NAPLAN practice, dig out the old XO laptops. My 1/2 kids loved them, they thought they were futuristic. I didn’t have the heart to tell them that they’re older than the kids. #AcuEdu_P #ruralteaching

1/2 have been working on making groups of 10. We have discovered that ten groups of 10 makes 100. #acuedu_p #ruralteaching

For the local show in town we designed pet rocks. We then wrote about them and measured them in mathematics. Taking photos in class has gotten a whole lot easier now my school has supplied every classroom teacher with a Surface Pro. #acuedu_p #ruralteaching

Professional learning weekend. #iotf6 #acuedu_p

Winner Winner Chicken Dinner!!

I’m excited to be offered and accepting an ES1 position at my school for 2020. I’m nervous as I haven’t been a kinder teacher! However I am very lucky that we are an EAfS and I will have amazing support from a very knowledgeable Instructional Leader. #acuedu_p #ruralteaching

My first day with Kinder and we made the news paper! #acuedu_p moreechampion.com.au/story/6619313/…

“Continued disobedience and disruptive behaviour also will be reinstated as grounds for suspension, and there will be no limit on the number of times a student can be suspended.” smh.com.au/national/nsw/p…

I have been super busy with university but I promise to start tweeting more often. #acuedu_p

Since finishing my uni semester I’ve been in Moree working at all the little schools here, the schools are lovely, the heat is not #ACUedu_p

Going to school and getting stuck in traffic. #ACUedu_p #ruralteaching (the car was stopped with the handbrake on when I took this)

I had the best view walking out the school gate this afternoon. #acuedu_P

I love seeing everyone putting their 1st week photos up. Out west we start in week 2, I can’t wait! Pics to come #ACUedu_p #ruralteaching

The students have been learning about coding using LEGO. All 5 students have been thoroughly engaged in the lessons. 5 students in the whole school. #acuedu_P #ruralteaching #smallschools
