The Te Hiku cluster has Christine Rubie-Davis coming to take PLD with the cluster this year. Some of the outcomes of the research from Woolf Fisher was the need for
- Student Agency
- Critical Thinking
- Better Design of tasks
- Not constraining the ‘top learners’ to help them accelerate/progress at (their) speed
I like the ideas of teachers having :
- high expectations for all students
- clear learning goals and how to achieve them.
- flexible groupings
- warm, positive classroom environments
I am looking forward to working with Christine and learning new practices, beliefs, verbal and non-verbal behavior to model in the classrooms.
