The primary goal of this workshop is to introduce interactive online learning tools that can reduce teacher workload while increasing student engagement. Participants will gain hands-on experience with these resources and have the opportunity to collaborate and share best practices among their peers.

The workshop will begin with an introduction emphasising the importance of interactive learning in primary education, setting the stage for the exploration of various online tools. Attendees will participate in demonstrations of key educational websites, where practical lesson ideas and examples will be shared to illustrate how these tools can be effectively integrated into classroom instruction.

A segment of the workshop will focus on utilising Poe.com AI, showcasing its capabilities as a supportive resource for teachers. Participants will learn how AI can assist in lesson planning and enhancing student engagement through real-time demonstrations, highlighting the potential of technology to streamline teaching processes.

Following this, an interactive practice session will allow teachers to engage directly with the tools introduced during the workshop. Participants will be encouraged to explore the features of each resource, providing feedback and sharing additional educational tools they have found effective in their own classrooms. This collaborative aspect aims to create a supportive environment where teachers can learn from one another.

The workshop will conclude with an open discussion for participants to share their favorite educational resources and tools, fostering a culture of collaboration and shared best practices. The session will wrap up with a recap of key takeaways and the distribution of a resource guide that includes links and descriptions of all tools discussed. This ensures that participants leave with valuable insights and materials for future reference.

In summary, this workshop is designed to empower primary school teachers by equipping them with interactive online tools, strategies for their effective use, and a network of shared resources. By participating, educators will enhance their teaching methods and ultimately improve the learning experience for their students.
