I'm SOOOOO Excited!!!

Wow ... What a great day we have had together today.  That's not to say it didn't have its challenges.  It certainly did, but we overcame them together.  But here is a little background to these comments...

In the holidays all the computers at Ohaeawai Primary were given an overhaul.  Old programs were removed and the new windows eight program was uploaded onto all - THIS INCLUDED ALL OUR NET-BOOKS !!! and what makes it even better is ... before the holidays, we had about 15 computers that were working reliably.  Now we can each have our own device to work on !!! HOW COOL IS THAT !!!

Sorry for the over use of exclamation marks, I know it is grammatically not correct but it is just ... brilliant.

We are having a few teething problems with this however, especially when the usernames and passwords get changed on us and we aren't told what the new ones are, but here to hoping that it is now sorted and we just get clean sailing.  Here are a few photos of our kids working.  Using the same resources as before but being able to collaborate even more and help each other.

Take a look and see what you think.

I can't wait for tomorrow.  Lets try Kahoot again for wordworks ... but this time those who want to compete on their own will be able to.   OOOOHHHHH its just soooo exciting.  Watch this space!
