This teacher posted a photo on Facebook and asked everyone who saw it to like it. So far it has 1,326,955 likes. Yes, that's more than a million!

What does this tell you about how many people might see your stuff on the internet? 

Most of them will be strangers. 

Think carefully about the pictures you post and the words you write because they will travel a long way and you can never take them back!

Look who I found on youtube!

Please do NOT text the number. They were in NZ's Got Talent in 2012.

You'll never look at Australia the same way again

A clever interpretation from the Facebook site "General Knowledge".

2011 to 2013 in the gardens

The Changing Gardens ( You'll see I like the rambling, sow seed where you choose, effect!)

The bee garden

A bumble bee...

A bee in flight!

and another bumble bee enjoying the garden.

One of the very few honey bees we have seen.

                                         
We have lots and lots of bumble bees, so in that way the garden is a success. Sadly there are still very few honey bees.

More static images

These are the images that were handed in. Given five blocks to plan, develop and complete the images some managed their time well and completed work to a high standard. Several then showed great co-operative skills to support others to finish.
Some students managed their time poorly and completed work to a low standard, or tried so hard to do a good job they didn't finish. Others were slow to start, drifted off task a lot and didn't finish.
These days I set deadlines, regularly remind students of the time available and expect them to work to the deadlines. That's how life is, and I believe they may as well be given the opportunities to develop time management skills sooner rather than later.

Here are the last of the images. Remember the brief was to use a scene from a book, movie or game to deliver a one word message.
