Simple Learning Time

Simple Learning Time

Two Parklands College Learners, Stephan and Luke, have developed an app called 

Simple Learning Time.

Simple Learning Time is a free educational app that has both a digital time and 

analogue clock display. Students can move the hands of the clock to display 

different times of the day in both 24 hour and 12 hour time formats. 

A rotating background indicates whether it is night or day. 

This can be used in many fun ways in the classroom.

Well done!!

Shutterbugs Wiggle and Stomp is a new educational game 

produced by the Smithsonian. The purpose of the game is 

to help children recognize the movements of animals. In the 

game children move through a virtual zoo with a zoo keeper. 

As they go through the virtual zoo the zoo keeper will ask 

students to take pictures of animals who are demonstrating 

running, jumping, stomping, and other movements.

Shutterbugs Wiggle and Stomp can be played online. 

The game is also available as a free iPad app.
