TAI 2018 - Question Development

Through collaboration and discussion with colleagues we identified a need or focus for myself to support me in being an effective leader to support student accelerations. Many ideas were shared, however this question was better suit.

' How can I develop my leadership to support and sustain student acceleration and ensure intervention coherence across school?' 

So what does this question mean to me?
For Acceleration to be successful across I need to develop my knowledge and understanding around how I can effectively lead my colleagues to ensure all students are successful achieving at a successful rate.I am able to effectively able to collaborate and listen to my colleagues when reflecting and sharing strategies or tools.



How will I be successful?
- Have a greater understanding of acceleration.
- Ability to effectively lead colleagues through acceleration.
- Understand the importance of coaching and its effectiveness.

Literacy Circles Reflection

Literacy Circles Reflection This week was the first week using the Literacy Circles reading programme. I have started this off as whole class to familiarise students with each role.  Worked Well:  Students understood the role of the " Discussion Director " and " Word Master "   Next Time:  More modelling and clear explicit instructions for each role (especially the role of the Summariser).  Asking for questions before students move into tasks.  Giving examples about how to successfully carryout this role.   

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.
