So, the first day was very tiring, but interesting. Being able to plan a unit of work, and being given time to do it, is pretty good. I have a bit of an idea on what I want to do with my unit, and last night had a few possible ideas that could be included.

Day 2- More energy to cope today, so came here feeling positive, and ready to work. I like the two aspects of the course, however find it very frustrating having to switch between planning a unit and then getting taught something more from the course. A few times I felt like I was finally getting somewhere with my unit plan, but then we had to stop and doing something different, and discuss something. Our discussions were valuable..but felt the stop start structure to be annoying. I hope that we get more time to work on our unit plan tomorrow that is of a more sustained nature.

Today was good, with more time to spend on the unit of work. I still am a long way from finishing. Have a good sleep, Anne.

Day 4-The 4 days I have spent lerning about the tools and developing a unit of work has been a tremendous experience and very valuable. I have not yet finished my unit, but that's okay, as no-one ever has after the 4 days of the Intel course. But I will definately finish it and use it with at least 2 groups at my school. Other grades will benefit through teachers learning about the tools from me.Thanks Anne.
