ICT Room 23/30

Every day one which is usually on Fridays room 30 (which is our buddy class) comes in to our classroom do ICT while the year eights are at tech. As you should all now know we are a digital classroom complete with 20 big apple Macintosh computers. We are also a composite class which means we have both year sevens and year eights. We have least a lot of fun things by doing ICT, from real basic stuff like connecting to the server to much bigger things like doing an imovie and making and updating our blogs which I am doing back now. Every single day I just can't wait to do ICT. It is an fun and very successful thing and I have learn't a lot from it.
