E-Learning within our Math program

[Sandy]

I would be interested to hear people's comments on how what has been learnt during the past two days could be used to promote E-Learning within our Math program here at QA?

Hi! Ayesha! I have no idea if what I do in class counts toward this forum or not. However, I have started using computers as a math centre in my class (not regularly yet, but I'm getting there) I usually check out some of the web sites myself to see if they are pertinent to what we are covering in class. The children get given about 10-15 minutes each and then rotate. I'm aiming for each child to have a turn a week on the computers specifically for math games. At the moment my fast workers are getting better use out of this arrangement.
I have also used the computers for my support group on a Sunday afternoon to practise their bonds (mental math) skills. The children all get so excited and involved. I mostly get them to log onto the qa website and to go in from the Grade 2 page.
