Term 1 toolkits

March is here already and online toolkits for term 1 are here. I started off as wingperson for Joanne Ryken and she had 65 participants for her workshop on shared reading and T shaped literacy. Then today I presented mine to 21 keen teachers on Measurement. The more I researched into the topic the more complex and complicatted you realise it is the teach the subject. The language, attributes, units and different areas that need to be covered. The best way to teach this area is hands on practicle, investigation rich and problem based. Exposing students to the different tools and units. Experience based allowing students to develope bench marks to be able to estimate and predict. Insteed of sharing great resources and tools in the slide I created a data base for everyone to share great resources. I also linked in the MIT and class on air resources. This could then become a one stop place to find great support and teaching resources. Now to start thinking about my topic for term 2 online tool kit. Before it sneaks up on us.
