Tonight's family/Whanau Hui

Tonight was the first of our family/Whanau Huis for the year. Here are our students sharing their blogs with their family. Family members had the chance to comment on the students blogs and learn about the types of things they might see on there. 

Today's Staff PD sessions

What a fantastic day we had today! We had 5 one hour sessions today with a new group of teachers during each session. 

All our project staff created their own pearltrees account where they uploaded the blog addresses for the students they teach and made comments on each one of them. 

Teachers came away having generated some real ideas about how to engage students using technology and ways to promote thinking about tools that might be used to enhance the classroom learning. 

Staff also went away considering their own online presence and continue their upskilling as part of this journey. 

Staff PD Day

Excited about the Staff PD day tomorrow with the 35 staff involved in this project 

Next Hui

Dear Whanau, family or community member.

As we begin Week Six of the term we would like to extend a warm invitation for you to join us at our next project hui.  It is time for us to share and involve you in the teaching and learning that the students have been a part of.

●      working on bringing together the learning she has been doing in all her classes

●      learning how to use new literacy skills

●      learning how to use technology to enhance her learning and

●      creating a blog which reflects her learning.
