This pathway is in the Aboriginal Garden in Margate. Shells were an important part of their life and that is what the pathway is made from.
I am not a fan of dogs, never having owned a pet dog at all. But councils are now starting to create dog friendly areas.
As you know from previous posts, I have been growing some vegetables in my garden. These are the corn cobs I picked and cooked this week.
We have quite a bit of trouble with the water table in the area where I live. My next door neighbours in particular. This is typical of their roof after about 5 minutes of rain.
When using computers, we often talk to students about their digital footprint. Many don’t know what it is, but once explained and show to them, they start realising that everything on the net is there forever.
But what about our footprints on the beach or in the wild? They also can stay there if we haven’t treated the natural world correctly.
As part of my job with the eSchool is to create some global collaborative projects for primary school students and classes, I thought having a reading blog would be great. This year is National Year of Reading, so when I chose the theme for the blog, I needed to create a new header. I visited my old school to take some images of bookshelves which I could then use to create the header.
Found a group of these scarecrows along the Tasman Highway between Sorell and Orielton. I think they were used as part of a festival held in the community earlier in the year.
Where I live in Tasmania, is very close to the local airport. In fact, the road I drove to work on last year was directly under the flight path if planes headed south first before turning right or left to head north to the mainland of Australia.
Here I was prepared for hordes of people to arrive. But throughout the day, there were only about 15 visitors to my stall, despite putting an ad in the local paper. Maybe people are not reading as many books now that they can read online.
Some of the teachers can’t come to the stall tomorrow as they are going away with families for the long weekend. Instead they are coming to my house today. This is what it will look like for them to browse through the boxes.
Now that I have retired from classroom teaching, I needed to sort out all my teaching resources ready for a book stall next week. Many of the books were still at school, so I went down today to bring them home. One teacher was finding some good bargains in there and saved me bringing home extra weight in the car.
