not just good

GOOD READS is something you'll be seeing a lot of at ISA in the coming months, as we'll be starting an Online Book Group using this website. Grade 8 will even be using it as a tool in their English classes. If you love reading you'll find it an amazing place to share your favourite books and discover new ones. Just make an account and start adding to your bookshelf. You can even link it in to your Facebook page to make reading even more social. And yes there's an iphone app!

think BIG

Frustrated at being stuck with A4 printing? Want your images to have a BIG impact?
Then Block Posters is for you! Upload and image (of course this would be text made in photoshop or alike), slice it up and then download the new images ready to print and put up.
Simple and BIG!

paintings 2.0

BBC Your Paintings is a wonderful new project from the Beeb, which aims to collect images of paintings from across the UK. With the involvement of 850 galleries and collections they are already more than 1/4 the way to the 200,000 painting target, representing 20,000 artists over 800 years. Search for a painting by theme, location or artist. This autumn sees the launch of a teacher blog that's bound to be useful for planning lessons. A brilliant example of the power of collaboration and public funding.
