E-asttle Moderation

Writing Moderation with Mentor




At the end of Term 3, students undertook their second e-asTTle writing assessment for the year. As the classroom teacher, I undertook the marking of all students writing (narrative) first. Through collaboration and discussion with my mentor, she was given one writing e-asTTle assessment for my high, middle and low, and made a judgement of where she believed they were at in accordance to the rubrics. I found this learning very informative, as it allowed me identify where I went wrong, and my next steps for next time. I have found moderation to be effective, as it gives both the moderator and marker an opportunity as into why they have been given that mark.

Te Reo Maori - Pukana Challenge

A challenge took place throughout this term (T2) regarding a 'Pukana Challenge' from schools within Aotearoa. The purpose of this challenge was to encourage the use of and participation in Te Reo Māori.  My Te Reo Māori Minister took charge in this department, teaching, encouraging and mentoring students through the process from start to finish. Lots of great discussions took place about what a pukana was, and the meaning of the kupu (words) they were saying. At the conclusion of this, R11 put out the challenge to the rest of the school. Having 2 classes take this up.  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yGHxtTV6hU8

I know that this was successful last year 2016 Term 4 where students were experts in different areas.
