- Hi Anne, I'm going well. How are you? And yes, we had out catch up session with Neville on Thursday - we're so sorry for missing the real one a couple of weeks ago.

They never come off. I'm starting to be a bit like Bono from U2.
I didn't realise how good nings were. Kind of like facebook a little.
I might make one for my grade. I think the kids would like it.

- We have started using Scratch with Brian Fitches which I am going to incorporate in to our theme on Cartoons and Comedy this term with students storyboarding a cartoons which they will tehn create and animate on Scratch and adding sound - some students have recorded their own songs or sound effects using their netbook mics and others using headphone mics.

I'm looking forward to the session in Bendigo. The links to the Wedderburn site are wonderful, certainly a huge journey in education since i was teaching there back in 1985, 86, 87
See you next week
