Interesting Ways To Use ...

Interesting Ways - Tom Barrett has been developing this series for some time. This is what he says about it: My Interesting Ways to Use series has been really successful. I measure their success in how useful they are to teachers and other educators in helping with professional development. I say “My” in the loosest sense of ownership really, as with all of the presentations they belong to us all. I just kickstart them and point them off in the right direction.

They have been a great example of crowdsourcing good quality classroom ideas and it has been great fun connecting with all of the people who have taken time to add an idea. It is remarkable what can be achieved and created together if you give people the right way to do it. Thanks for all the help so far.

It all began with One Idea, One Slide and One Image as a premise for the IWB presentation and that has always remained. I hope we can all continue to make create them – let me know if you have any other ideas for a presentation.

I wanted to keep the family together in one place and give you one page to see them all, as so many of you have requested. Don’t forget that if you want to contribute an idea just let me know and I will give you access to share your thoughts.


Tim Rylands did some work with 'Wordle' recently. Children produced 'Wordles of Character' and their work is celebrated here.
He continued this work and these wonderful pieces of children's expressive writing are celebrated here.
