Freemake Video Converter

Freemake Video Converter


This is really a great piece of software.
I use this program all the time, especially when I have downloaded
something or taken it off a camera or video camera.
Load the file and then click to which format you would like to export it.
Very easy to use and it can convert to most formats.
I also like the fact that you can download it offline and use it, as it is not using
bandwidth to convert!!

Brilliant!!

Mega Drive

Mega Drive


If you are looking for online space to save information.
Have a look at Mega drive.  It is a free service that after you have 
registered gives you 50 GB of space.
I have uploaded 10 GB of information to the drive and I
was very impressed with the speed.
It has all the normal file sharing, etc

Very cool!!

Paint.NET

Paint.NET



Paint.NET is a piece of software that I use every day.
It is really fantastic.  It is a free image and photo editing 
piece of software for computers that run Windows. 
It features an intuitive and innovative user interface with 
support for layers, unlimited undo, special effects, and 
a wide variety of useful and powerful tools.
There is also a great forum for you to learn more and
download new effects, etc.

BRILLIANT!!!

Whiteboard resources Shapes and Measures

Online Whiteboard resources 


This is great site for a few interactive mathematics activities for Primary School.
There is addition, Thinking Skills and shapes and measures.
I used the perimeter resource above and found it very good.
You can decide on simple or compound shapes.
If you need another shape just click on the button and you get another shape.
I did have a problem trying to place the answer in to check.
Still a very nice resource for your classroom!
