Thanks for sharing your classroom! I really enjoyed learning how y’all (Can you tell I’m from Texas?) learn each day. I plan to share your sites with my teachers!
Wow, I am so inspired…. I teach Year 4 in Beijing and you have given me a bunch of great ideas.
A couple of questions –
1) how long does it take you to manage all of this every week?
2) how do I find the movement videos you were showing on YouTube. It is blocked here in China but I do have a proxy and can download and convert so would love to use what I saw.
Again, thanks for the inspiration.

After viewing this video I feel like I am teaching in a prehistoric classroom. I am so WOWed by your innovation, creativity and forward thinking that combines to make such a powerful learning environment for your students. I am completely inspired!
Amazing classroom. I want to come to New Zealand and be in your classroom. 🙂 🙂 I am a Pre-Service Student Teacher at a College in Oklahoma, USA. I am taking a technology 4 teachers class and watching your video is one of our assignments. Thanks for sharing your classroom and students with our classes here!

Amazing presentation of how you use technology in your classroom. I’m a teacher of year 3 children (7-9) and am on the journey of incorporating blogs and wikis. I was amazed by how technology is woven into your school day and how your class are readily using these technologies. I reallly liked how you use the wiki as a simplified launchpad for the web. Would love to visit…

How great that you use technology as a tool in helping students understand better. I was awestruck when I saw the video. This is precisely how children should learn. I also think that how to videos and online training sessions can help them immensely.
