An idea that came from the conference was a first day at school book/power point. The idea is that a senior child follows the new child for the day taking photos of where their bag goes, where their class is, who is their teacher, who they played with, where they are allowed to play etc The senior child then creates a power point that gets printed and binded into a book that can go home with that child.
This was done only for new entrant children. I think that this would be a great idea for any new child regardless of which syndicate they are joining. We could have templates of the power point for each syndicate as it will vary between syndicates.
The power point could also be emailed to the family so they can share it with other family members. Or it could be done in google docs power point. It could also be uploaded onto their class or personal blog, or the information could be used for the information about me part of their blog.
I think this will be a great idea. Great practice for our children in photography and power point skills, as well as design and layout and as well as relationship building.
