COPYRIGHT - Copy NOT RIGHT!

Dear Boys and Girls,

How many of you have copied any pictures( maple story, characters) and photographs from the internet?

How many of you have downloaded songs and games from the Internet?

Those of you who answered YES, did you ask for permission to do so?

Imagine that you have drawn a marvellous piece of drawing and your classmates took your drawing and submit to the teacher. How would you feel?

If you feel angry and upset, then how would the copyright owner feel when their works/ drawings are copied by other?

Do take note of the following whenever you would like to copy /download any pictures, photographs from the Internet.

- Check for the symbol, conditions of use or copyright statement of the website
- Follow any information or guidelines stated by the author of a work

1st IT lesson :)

I had my 1st IT lesson with P3.4 on 15Jan o8. I was pretty excited as I would like to see my pupils engaged in their learning. They are the "technokids" of Primary 3. Eversince the first day of school, a few of them have been showing me flash( storage) cards and asking me stuff related to IT. They have also been pestering me for days as to when we'll be having IT lesson. As such, on 15 Jan08, they waited in much anticipation as I went to push 2 big metal cabinets of laptops to the class. Being a gentle lady, I definitely need the help of a strong gentleman, Mr Justin, our ICT executive.

WAH!!! WOW!! These were the sounds made by my kids... Afterwhich, Mr Justin and I explained and demonstrated to the kids the correct way to handle laptops and operate them with great care. Trust me, the kids were attentive and at the same time, excited!!!

Though we couldn't do much work on the laptop on that day, the kids have learnt how to retrieve a laptop from the cabinets. This is definitely a great start for them. They are all looking forward to next week's IT lesson on creating application form using Microsoft Words application.

....to be continued...
