Relationship Based Learning -RBL with Claire 

Cognition- Jena Crowely training

1. Identify and measure if you are a deficit thinker. Making judgements about students.

2. Ethnicity and culture- make the child feel as though they belong.

3. High expectations for ALL students.

4. Well managed environment - planning.

5. Knowing the content that you are teaching. 

Discursive Practices- Strategies 

1. Prior learning- get student involved in the teaching. If they know something get them to teach or discuss with the class

2. Feedback and feedforward. I like the way you ….. Because…Next time you could try...

3. Co-construct the learning. 

4. Power-share- step out of the picture and get the student to help and teach each other. Using your children to empower others.

Reflection

Karakia- I would like to achieve knowing the meaning of our school karakia. Also knowing it off by heart.

Maths games- Micheal Minas- has short YouTube clips on fun easy games for children. I would like to develop some more fun games for our Maths Must do and Can do.

Gifted students- Searching through this website to get some more insight on identifying a potential gifted student in my class. https://gifted.tki.org.nz/define-and-identify/

Writing- Writing prompts- Try Pobble! Also draw on children's interest such as Hello Neighbour and other things of interest students discuss in class.

Shared and guided reading lecture with Vera- Model strategies during guided reading (sounding out, blends, digraphs. Pretend that I'm stuck on something and ask students what strategy I could use to figure the word out).

Emergent readers- Hook students in with an end in mind. What do I want the students to learn? Organic. Example- If I wanted students to learn about concepts about print (front, back, spine, front cover, author) Have a theme, for example ‘fun’. Get a bunch of book around the theme fun. Draw a picture about a fun time you had and invite students to draw or talk about a fun time they had. Always invite. Then get the students to look through the books on the table. Look at pictures. Discuss the ways the characters are having fun.

Always know your end game. Notice. Observe.
