Inquiry T2 - Peer Tutoring

Through the rich seem reading, I identified that I wanted to explore peer tutoring. The purpose behind this is the hope to motivate students to be more invested in their learning to achieve their learning outcomes. Through discovering my new inquiry, my team leader and I looked at how this would link to improving outcomes for my target students (Year 8 Māori boys) in Literacy, how we could achieve this  and the purpose as to why this focus is important and beneficial to the learner.  The purpose (Why) The develop accountability and engagement.  How  am I going to achieve this?  Modelling peer tutoring strategies Unpacking terms of what makes a successful peer tutor, using the T.I.P Chart.  Providing meaningful feedback/feedforward.  What am I doing (Teacher Inquiry)?  Inquiry Question - How will peer tutoring motivate students to be more interested in their learning to achieve their learning outcomes with regards to l...

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). 

Prominent Taranaki Māori Leaders

This term as apart of our Te Reo Māori Unit, Tangata Rongonui, we have been exploring prominent Taranaki Māori Leaders (Te Whiti o Rongomai, Tohu Kakahi, Te Ua Haumene, Te Rangi Hiroa, Tā Maui Pomare, Wiremu Kingi, and Titokowaru).  Learners were given 20 minutes to research facts on a given leader (D.O.B, Education, Job, Family and Iwi connections for example). After this time, each student was placed into collaborative groups to share valuable information about their Tangata Rongonui. Every learner was extremely engaged in this process and were overwhelmed by the knowledge held by these Prominent Leaders of Taranaki.  It is pivotal that we teach our tamariki about prominent leaders within each rohe (region) of Taranaki as Aotearoa's culture and history.
