24th July 2015

At the end of last term each class held their parent interview evenings. I was overwhelmed by the number of parents I had turn up. Having well over half my parents attend their child's inspiring. This showed how interested each whānau was keen and interested to check on their child, their progress and next learning steps. I found this to be a successful afternoon and evening. Relevant questions were asked by parents that allowed them to identify their own next steps for their child. 

This short video clip below explains the importance of Teacher and Parent engagement. Without engagement between both parties, can make it difficult to know both personal and learning backgrounds of an individual. Without engaging positive relationships and communication by the teacher, means the whanau members have no clear idea about what their child/ren have been learning each term. Strong communication whether it be by phone, email, txt, face-to-face, or writing is key to set up success for each learner

Culture

Culture  As a class we have been exploring culture and diversity. Each learner has been spending time exploring their ethnicity, religion, foods, traditional dances/music, iwi, country/ies of origin to help them better understand who they are. This has been a fantastic learning journey for all.  Students were shown a clip about what culture and diversity meant by taking notes. In groups students then needed to create a definition that they understood about what culture and diversity means. They needed to share this back with the class and explain their understanding about their definition.       Our reading workshops this term have been based on culture and understanding different cultural traditions and beliefs (Visual Arts, Music, and Foods for example).
