Grow my voice - Sharing stories

What led to this learning?
When using the reading strategies I posted in a previous comment I noticed that learners did not have an authentic place to record their reading strategies.
Summary of learning design:
So I created a blog where the learners could record and share their reflections of stories. They record their story then write a blog post including the following elements - reading strategies, levels and genres. So the learners are developing their assessment capability as well as learning from other learners and their reflections.
Reflection on Learning Design
Learners have grown in their vocabulary and this is mainly due to seeing the reflections of other learners and how they are phrasing their blog posts as well as using the reading strategies to extend their writing.

Using the Agency Survey to Track Shift

What led to this learning? My Numeracy group took the Agency Survey at the beginning of the year. When I reviewed the results I noticed the group was lowest in the area of assessment capability. Summary of learning design: I decided to focus on using the Learning Process to build my learners' ability to use feed back and take action. Some ways of implementation were as follows: ~ SchoolTalk Checkout before leaving workshops or Numeracy for the day. ~ Using teacher created and learner created Success Criteria ~ Shoulder tap and choice workshops through whole hub Numeracy ~ Choice grouping when working on independent learning tasks ~ SchoolTalk Thursdays ~ Students paired up by teachers to receive feedback on what they are uploading onto SchoolTalk Reflection on Learning Design My initial assumptions were inaccurate and somewhat incomplete. I should have looked deeper in to the survey, as well as at more students, possibly even waited a bit longer to get to know my st...

Reading Strategies - Growing Vocabulary

What led to this learning? I noticed learners did not have resources to drive their own learning when developing an understanding of their reading strategies. Summary of learning design: I designed these cards to empower learners to grow their own vocabulary while practising their reading strategies. These can be used for learners to ask each other questions or during intentional workshops with the teacher. Reflection on Learning Design This has grown Literacy language with the learners. I realised that I can not do all the strategies at once. During workshops with a teacher I have been focusing on using one reading strategy with the whole group. Eventually or with learners who already know some of the strategies, you could use more than one strategy card.
