Talofa! We are a collaborative class with year 1-3 students and three teachers. This is our first year of collaborative teaching and we have been making some exciting new discoveries and implementing some great new ideas including this blog. The learning that is published here is a work in progress and a way to show the steps we are making in our learning. There will be mistakes, wonderings, and celebrations of achievement. Please enjoy the learning we are sharing with you in all its forms!

Look At That Amazing Reading!
In Room 6's Reading Room we have slightly changed our ' silent reading' routine. Miss D is so proud of her class who are now able to sustain nearly 10 minutes of quiet reading. Each child gets to pick a text from their current journal. They read it independently and choose a paragraph to present. They need to know enough to be able to explain what their text was about and answer any questions the class asks them. The children present their paragraph to the class if their name gets drawn out of the cup! Everyone is so eager to share and the children have been a great audience giving positive feedback as well as areas for improvement. It also makes Miss D incredibly proud to see and the children develop from watching others present and grow in their confidence in presenting in front of an audience.
