Learners: Kiko & Vicky                                                              Habitat: LH1        Learning Coach: R. Moopanar                                                  Date: 26.10.17

Learning Area: iExplore - Sunsmart      Key Competency: Participating and Contributing

Learning Observed

This term our focus is on how we can be capable citizens. In order to launch this the learners participated in a capable iExplore on Being Sunsmart where they collaboratively explored and brainstormed ideas about what being sunsmart is all about. The lasting understanding from this iExplore was that we can be connected in a variety of ways and display these connections by predicting and processing what the steps are in beings sunsmart. It was great to see the learners supporting each other in being curious and deciding how to be sunsmart and  hear them describe their ways of being sunsmart as an example of how we can recall and connect with others.  All of the learners displayed their capabilities by working with a buddy on their own sunsmart presentation. The presentations can be found on the learner’s Google Drive.

Learning Area: LH1

Learning Coach: Priscilla Lavakula

NZ Curriculum Achievement Objectives

Use simple additive strategies with whole numbers and fractions
Know the basic and addition and subtraction facts

Learning Observed:

In maths we have been learning to solve word number problems. The exponents group have been learning to read and identify the most important parts of a word problem that will help them to solve it. The learners then, had to discuss what the problem was asking us to do ie. add, subtract, multiply or divide.

Key Competencies/ Vision Principles:

Kiko shows being curious and connected when modelling to and questioning during discussions that took place. She listens very carefully. Kiko shows capability by saying what kind of equation each word problem was and why.

Next Learning Steps:
