Welcome back everyone!  As you know, each year at our school we have a motto to guide our learning though the year.  This year it is

“WE is greater than me”. 

We can learn a lot on our own BUT we can learn even more with and from others who share our interests.  This year at SMOT we are focusing on developing our own Personal Learning Networks (PLNs).   We will be exploring ways that we can connect with other people to learn and achieve even more together.  Our PLN can be made up of family, friends, classmates,  students at SMOT and other schools as well as experts and people from all over the world!  We are going to have an exciting year of learning at SMOT as we connect and learn from and with  people from near and far! 

Our LRC Blog is already helping us to develop our PLNs by connecting us with people from around the globe who are interested in what we do in our LRC – just look at the dots on our ClustrMap! 

Think about your Personal Learning Network (PLN)….

Who shares your interests?

Who helps you to learn?

How do you learn?

Where do you learn?
