'The Churn' is coming!!! ♻️ Have you given your current P6 and P7 the chance to voice what they think might help their P5 pals when their iPad arrives in August? @stfrancisxaviers.bsky.social have been doing exactly that and getting their learners involved in this important annual process! 🙌
Room 15 are working hard to think of activities that will support our P5s to learn digital iPad skills before they get their 1:1 @connectedfalk.bsky.social device in P6. We used padlet to gather skills that might be needed!
