20.01.2022 Working at Mawson Lakes to dig deeper into Reflecting on Texts.

14.01.2022 I’m very impressed with the way teachers have implemented their learning about inferring (with a focus on character). Whole class goals, guided reading and individual reading goals.

13.01.2022 Here are *6 tips* for handling verbal and sometimes physical outbursts in the classroom.

13.01.2022 The National Literacy Learning Progressions have recently been updated on the Australian Curriculum website. https://australiancurriculum.edu.au//version-3-of-nationa/ If you would like an editable word version of the Reading and Viewing strand of the progressions (which include the Big Six of reading) aligned to year levels, I have just re-done one. You can find it via this link. The folder also provides an instruction sheet on how to access the progressions which can be difficult to find. https://www.dropbox.com//jjz3yo/AAAC1tHleoctVERCJBmLZatea

12.01.2022 Working with the wonderful staff P-7 from Challa Gardens on Monday. We spent the whole day exploring inferring about character. Narrow and deep makes a difference. During the day we explored vocabulary students need to describe emotions as well as character. Here’s a great resource that supports this work. https://www.facebook.com//pcb.12229987947/1222998548092697

09.01.2022 What do a world champion athlete, an award-winning actor and a TV news broadcaster have in common? They were all the proud beneficiaries of a great Australian public education. #ProudlyPublic #PublicEducation

09.01.2022 When we know better, we do better.
