<div>Sounds like an old chestnut again folks...dropping numbers!</div>
<div>Why? Could be a myriad of reasons..no simple single teaching solution as I see it.</div>
<div>Our best bet is to hope we have keen and dedicated kids who are prepared to work hard.</div>
<div>I guess we just do the best we can and help each other with resources where we are able to.</div>
<div>I found youtube and wiki a great help. Google clearly is handy..no denying that one!</div>
<div>Perhaps some of us will be at Swinny for the CS4HS sessions ....catchup then and bounce ideas?</div>
<div>Cya there.</div>

<span>I use a lot of stuff which I store in my google drive which I share with students
</span><br>
<span>There is one folder for 'info' stuff which they only. Have read access</span><br>
<span>Another folder to which they can write where they share summaries, vocab lists, and other bits such as SRS communal projects etc</span><br>
<span>They also have their own shared folder on their google drive which they share with me</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>If you only have four or five of each then you can probably manage with sharing time between them and overlapping with things like PSM, h/w, sw, etc</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>In sof dev my students use Adrian's book on the iPad - a few purchased paper copy too.</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>Vera - you have taught sof dev? But Kate, have you?</span><br>
<span>If not it wi ll be very hard, else give up now? End if</span><br>
<span></span><br>
<span>In term 3 get your unit 2 students to do NCSS as their programming component cause that gives you five weeks to focus n teh big sac in sof dev.</span><br>
