We're in the middle of August ... winter is almost over!!
Teacher Only Day
We had a fabulous day with Pam Hook. We know we are really on track for children's learning with our use of SOLO taxonomy. Pam summed up deep learning in the following 3 steps:
- gather ideas
- make connections with these ideas (e.g. sequence, compare and contrast, study effects)
- take these ideas further (e.g. find new solutions, make generalisations, make predictions)
She shared a number of fabulous tools to help us work with children and develop their thinking skills.
Koru Games
We are finalising details for these games. Information will be sent out this week regarding our teams, practice and parent help required.
