Problems of practice
• Fledgling Learning Community and need an agreed and viable curriculum
• Do not know students as learners and therefore need to develop effective feedback and formative assessments
• Link to in depth analysis
Observations and assumptions• Maths planning is not comprehensive That we needed an agreed and viable
curriculum P-6 via shared language, understanding of developmental sequences, embedded in real life situations
• Inferential learning and comprehension, vocab (learned intelligence. Our students need to develop comprehension skills. Need foundational literacy for ‘below and at’ to push them up
• align with comprehension skills starting earlier and enriching the reading and writing experiences by overcoming the SFO barriers to learning though experienced based inquiry learning
• Extending kids vertically and laterally through programs of contemporary literacy increasing the deep knowledge and non -fiction content
• Developing independent reading and resilience to sustained learning periods of time.
Theory of Action• If we know our students as learners we will
personalise and improve their learning outcomes and empower them to have ownership and control of their learning
• Knowing a learner to us means:*hopes and dreams (theirs, their family and the community),* interests, *misconceptions, *questions ,*worries stumbling blocks, gaps,* ways of learning /asking what is effective?
