 On November 10th I attended a TOD that was based around the new NZ curriculum refresh - with a focus on English. It was very interesting.

 Over the past few terms we have had staff meetings around the new RE curriculum. 

This looks like a great, easy and straight forward resource to use.

Assessment Capable Learners

Today we participated in a PD Staff Meeting around Assessment Capable Learners. We looked at 

different strategies that we could implement into our classrooms and how we can activate children as 

learning resources to eachother and their teachers.

From this workshop/PD as a teaching team we chose to implement 2 of the strategies

- Random Talk Partners during Concept

- Mid -Lesson Learning Stops during our Learning Circles for Writing

Working With Team on Target Students

 Today we worked together to highlight our Year 6 Target students so we are aware of the students that we want to highlight and move to reach their potential.

We discussed the ways that we can work with them in the classroom to accelerate their progress.
