Teaching as Inquiry- Reading - 2015

Staff  as a whole have undertaken a reading inquiry for their professional learning this year. 

MY question is : how do learning intentions and success criteria impact on the learning of the children?

The document attached as shown the progress, reflections and impact this has had on my target children.

Reading Together- During the year Jane and I trained to share Reading Together with our whanau- caregivers and parents. During term 3, we had our first group of ten parents. They were a mixture of Team 1 and 2 whanau. The chosen whanau were a mix of cultures.
We were overwhelmed with the success of the programme- such fantastic reports and feedback from our parents- young and old!
Our plan is to share this programme with whanau in both term 2 and 3.

Attached is the report to the Ministry.

ALIM 2013

During 2013, I was part of the MOE ALIM group. This group was made up of people from Wellington to Rotorua, covering primary and secondary school children. This professional development included readings, working with small groups each day both within the class and withdrawn. this was for children who were below the National Standard for their age.
A very reflective year focussing on maths, constantly updating the way you spoke or worked with equipment and children.
Attach MOE final report that was presented to colleagues.
