Some data worth smiling over! 8 grade 2 sts, 17 weeks of learning… started at kindy / grade 1 level. Blue: above, green: at, yellow: just below, orange: low, red: concern against a grade 2 level. Bring on the next group of sts and I will remember to plot before / after!😊😴

New group of students and we’re loving making comics based on Mo Willems’ book “don’t let the pigeon stay up late!’ we mapped the emotions of the pigeon & created our own pigeon story. Stay tuned, students will be making their own comic with their own characters and story map!

It’s been a big learning curve for me and a great term at that! We rounded out the year by designing their very own board games and rules.. seriously incredible from 8 year olds!

I’m working in a specialist role for children with very low literacy and numeracy in grade 3... so to hear ‘I really like writing’ makes your heart skip a beat and puts a smile on your dial! Animal v animal- who would win in a battle?! Australia vs Canada! 🕷 🦅 🐳 🦈 🐻 🐊

T-JAMboard is coming along nicely. There are 8 puzzle frames and 2 for students to create their own T-Jam Puzzle and coded solution. Is this something you'd like me to share?

We thought about how to design our 20-90 posters to make it easy to know how many straight away (we considered dice patterns and the use of colour and shape)
