I worked on creating more buttons for my class site and adding pages (3 clicks deep) with planning & videos (making a playlist on my google account & inserting videos onto the google slide made specifically for that group).
• What did I learn that could be used with my learners?  How to insert a YouTube video onto a presentation.
• What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow in my personal life? Learning more about creating pages that link e.g from Maths groups to their group's mahi.

Blogging a reflection on your Share

• What did I learn that could be used with my learners?  
• To use Code.org which the kids would find fun and would teach the kids about direction

e.g L to R, Maths - count

• Scratch - Could help to teach the kids the next steps in coding, extending on from what they have learned from code.org.
• What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow? I learned more

  about the importance of Sharing. Making sure that the leaning is shared on an authentic platform
e.g Blogging. What resonated was how Sharing can create an opportunity for students to make sharing and learning authentic, purposeful and creates a way for students to finish their learning.  There is also a chance for students to get something finished and to use student's voice.
