This lesson was extra special because it was the first time we used Google Classroom on the Chromebooks! The children did a great job navigating the new technology. We also focused on presentation, learning how to use the squares in our books to set out our work neatly instead of using worksheets. A big well done to Year 2 for embracing these new skills!
