Introductions

 media type="custom" key="3938635" Welcome to the introduction page. First of all I would like to to meet the people who inspire me. I am married to Jon and we have 2 girls Emily (9) and Kirsty (7). I have been teaching for 14 years with some time off to bring up my family. I am at present teaching in the senior school at Awahou (Year 6,7,8). In my class we have access to 7 laptops (which are continually in use) we have 4 cameras and a mounted projector. My programme is intergrated with ICT useage. Each student has a wiki which they can showcase work. My passion is for older students and being able to provide them with a to develop their skills required for the job opportunities that are yet to be created. I have been teaching for 14 years and I feel my greatest growth has occurred over the last 2 years as I have reentered as a classroom teacher and have had opportunity to explore ICT integration. I have also had development through our whole school process of inquiry learning and are continuing to strengthen this area. I believe I have strong classroom management and relational skills which certainly adds to the learning environment I create.
