Why Google Sites - Using a Classroom site

- We use these as a platform for our children. So tauira and their parents can access their learning and what they are doing in classes.
- To be informative.
- To communicate and share our learning.
We spent most of the day creating our own sites. The goal is to have this visible and operating by Week 1 of Term 4......Watch this space.
