1. What is your biggest success?
- The working relationship with Tara - it has been consistent, supportive and allows for both of us to support each other and the kids.
2. Where are you at with your goals?
- Reading Recovery (RR): Very successful in supporting RR kids and all kids. Awesome progress across the class. RR strategies are making a difference - cross over of prompts ...YAY!
- Creation if successful programmes in a collaborative environment: Worked well together to accelerate progress. Exciting acceleration noted (Sarah B). Ensured maths has still been a focus - seeing neat stuff in maths. Evidence is the engagement of the children. Student-led "I wonder" questions have driven inquiry - has been really engaging for kids. Development play in the afternoon has shown an decrease in the aggressive / angry behaviour. Both teachers on the same page. Wondering about how much we include Petera - is it enough, do we have enough leadership of his programme?
- Assessment - anecdotal notes: Using modelling books, but still not at a point where we are happy with this. Tried digitising it, but it is a challenge to capture evidence when teaching.
3. Target students - what difference have you made? Evidence?
- RR kids (Anna-Rose, Corey, Shaun) - see assessments
- Sarah has made great progress - evidence in assessments
- Te Anga - just see where he is at in class and the playground. Major change!
4. Changes for 2017?
- Will be different with less RR hours and more in-class together time
- Want to include ideas from Rototuna School writing observation
- Many structures will stay the same
- Inquiry has been different - better this term
- Open times for transition visits are good. Need to strengthen the EC centre visits - Rikki needs to be there! Need to keep taking ex-pupils with us
- Wondering from Rikki: Where does Te Whāriki fit with the thinking about your programme?
5. SLT support for 2017?
- Continuing support for us to try our ideas out in class
- Support to allow us to continue our PD around writing in our class
- Ongoing support for class behavioural/pastoral need
- Clear guidelines for expectations and "checking up/checking in on" around things like appraisal/class blogs
- Just being there when we need it :)
