If the local community can work together to make collections before coming to our Newlands Fire Base that would be much appreciated to try keep the area uncongested.
Light snacks, energy drinks, energy bars etc would be much appreciated 🙏

On a day like today, firefighting is brutal. Does anyone know if there’s anything we can do to help? These firefighters and pilots and doing God’s work out there @vwsfires @TableMountainNP
Q4 Collaboration also means learning from the Ss- I have learnt SO much from allowing them to screen mirror their iPads and show me/the class how to do something. Shows everyone is a teacher, and we can learn from anyone #ZAedu
Q4 Other teachers know that they can pop in to my class at anytime to chat/share/see what we're up to. My boys LOVE it #ZAedu
Q2 I think that collaboration helps to break down the silos and helps teachers to be less precious about their subject areas. It breaks down the amount of work needed to be covered and allows more time for Ss to explore further #ZAedu
A1: As the supposed "all knowing" techie sharing teaching ideas using tech is a daily occurrence. During lockdown I ran how to sessions. #ZAedu
#ZAedu We make a collaborative Staff lockdown Youtube playlist of all our fave songs. (its still being used!)
Hello from a wet Cape Town. My fave collaborative task was the Bitmoji virtual staffroom we did with our staff. #ZAedu

A4: teach thinking and skills rather then pure reciting of facts. Create thinkers not parrots #ZAedu – at Edenvale, South Africa
A4: #ZAedu by providing them with 1. Choices of activities that show understanding 2. Allowing multiple platforms on which to show their understanding 3. Various forums in which to share and discuss understanding. 4. Allow Ss to listen to each other to understand how others think
Q4: How do we encourage students to foster and develop their creativity?
#ZAedu
#backtoschool #edutwitter #remotelearning
A3: #ZAedu It has been an opportunity to allow learners to come up with their own way of showing their knowledge. They are freer to voice their own thoughts/understanding, but also have to OWN their thoughts. Very important with my boys!
Q3: How has creativity impacted or benefited your hybrid classroom? Share some of your examples or insights.
