Most of the games pages were made for children, but the team has found they can be quite fun for adults too!

These are a few of the things we did, either in the schools or from home:

(click on the images to enlarge)	A Byron Wood learner e-mailed us her avatar for the FamilyNet summer activities.
The learners in Firs Hill learned to shop online, safely and sensibly. Many found great bargains as well!
	In Monteney they learned to use blogs, these are only a few examples.
A Share course on "Helping our children in KS2" was offered to the Southey Green learners. They enjoyed it a lot, and learned even more from it!
	Lots of the families worked together on the computers to win different prizes. This learner from Mansel found out all the answers for the Treasure Hunt challenge and won a voucher.
The learners of Pye Bank produced this report to say what they had learned in the project and what they would like to do afterwards.
	In Shirecliffe they learned to use PowerPoint. This is the show a learner produced in less than 2 hours. She didn't know what PowerPoint was before coming to the lesson!
In St Catherine's school, a group of parents worked very hard to know how their children learn in KS2.
