Hoki Hub Term 1 - Learn

Cultural Responsibility

We had a staff meeting that looked at some of the documents that are from the ministry to support Māori and Pacific students.

We compared the two documents and looked at the frameworks in both books.

I found the Pasifika Success Compass interesting because I think it could be used for all learners.

I found the Tātaiako Competencies interesting and how some of our school values link into what they are.

Ako - Practice in the classroom and beyond.
Wānanga - Communication, problem solving, innovation.
Manaakitanga - Values: integrity, trust, sincerity, equity.
Tangata Whenuatanga - Place-based, socio-cultural awareness and knowledge.

School Assembly

Here is our school song and mihi. This is our Monday morning school assembly program. It's is a great way for everyone to learn our school song and practice it as well as our school mihi. It sets the school up for the week.

Learning Site 2019

Developing a learning site has just become away of teaching and making your classroom learning visible to all learners.
It allows students to develop more student agency with their learning as they have to take responsibility for organising their work.

Maths Inquiry

I have continued to document and set goals on the progress of my two students that I am doing my inquiry on.  Building their knowledge of patterns and the hundreds frame has really impacted their learning and has shown acceleration.  Their testing in Term 3 on PAT showed accelerated improvement for one student and improvement for the other.

One family has been very engaged in their child's learning and have been very open to trying maths at home by using board games, card games to improve their child's maths.

The support I have had through the Maths PLG has been amazing and it has really supported me to identify ways to push and support these learners so that they can achieve to their potential.

Toki Staff Meeting Term 3

Meeting about the sharing part of Learn Create Share. Ways to make sure that we are giving our students an authentic audience.

Learning Site

This is my third year with a learning site. I find this a really exciting way to share learning with the students as it gives tham a chance to develop self management skills.
