Online TOD - Assessment Capable Learners

 Today we learnt about the 3 different types of learners

- Supported Learner

- Self-Managing Learner

- Self - Directed Learner

This was a great session as we were advised of a variety of online tools/websites that you can use within th classroom setting and incororapte to online learning during this ectended lockdown

Answer Garden

Jamboards

Screencastify

During the session it was great to be able to acknowledge where we are already using it and where we could look to extend add it. An example of this was we use it with our Traffic Light System with Follow Up tasks in Math, but can we use it in other curriculum areas i.e Writing or RE

During the Breakout Session with my team we decided to implement 

- a "DROP IN" session for students after the their online seession where they can come back online to work or ask questions

- create a shared language that we can use across Ako 2 so that no matter what teacher the students are with they can understand and know what we are talking about.

DMIC Fractions/ Percentages Online Workshop

   DMIC Fractions/ Percentages Online Workshop

Today I tuned into a amazing workshop with teachers from all around NZ who use DMIC in their classrooms. 

The aim of the workshop was to look in detail at the NZ Maths Achievement Objectives NA3-1 and NA3-5 and to break them down into workable Learning Outcomes for lessons. We then looked at a variety of word problems and decided what Learning Outcomes these problems could have associated with them. From there we had a word problem that we had to re-write.

All of this work was done in break out rooms (in Zoom) with 4 or 5 other teachers. It was an amazing experience for many reasons:

1. working and getting to know other teachers from around the country.

2. Practising and working through how you would plan from starting at the big picture right down to the classroom level. (this was an amazing insight and great practise)

3. Coming away with a varietty of word problems and Learning Outcomes that can be used in our planning and classrooms

Here is a link to the workshop document that we walked away with
