Compare and contrast map

Learners: Hamish and Stephan Learning Coach:   Radha Moopanar         Date: 11 November

Learning Area:          iExplore                                         Key Competency:     Participating and Contributing NZC AO:                    Level 2 Language Features: uses a large and increasing bank of high-frequency, topic-specific, and personal-content words to make meaning & shows an increasing knowledge of the conventions of text

Learning Observed

In iExplore we worked collaboratively in small groups to create and present our new learning with our hapu group and get feedback from them on our learning.  The focus for this particular activity was to choose two things that we learnt from our iExplore and create a compare and contrast map to share what we learnt. We share ideas for topics and make open ended questions that we can research and explore. Having the opportunity to make choices about our learning promoted self directed learning, and this increased our focus and motivation. Hamish and Stephan recorded their compare and contrast map on a chart so all could look at them. It was great to see them make connections to their curiosities.

Time machine narrative writing

Stephan Learning Coach:   Radha Moopanar      Date: 2 November 2016

Learning Area:        iDevelop: Speaking, Writing and Presenting                                         Key Competency:   Using Language, Symbols and Text NZC AO:                   Level 2 Language Features: Students will: • Select and use sources of information, processes, and strategies with some confidence to identify, form, and express ideas.

Learning Observed

This term our learners developed their curiosities in narrative writing. Stephan participated in workshops to plan, write, edit and present his writing.  The learners were introduced to narrative structure and language features.  Stephan used feedback provided by the Learning Coach and his peers to make improvements to his overall performance.  The use of a google document allowed Mrs Moopanar to provide ongoing feedback to the learners regarding their narrative content and organisation.  Stephan collaborated with other learners to practice and apply his presentation and writing skills.  The learners used devices to publish their narratives and used these publishings to observe, notice and make changes to their narratives. With support and guidance Stephan was able to share his knowledge and use appropriate structure and language to inform the audience.  It was great to see Stephan practice and apply his writing skills to develop an overall curiosity both at writing and presenting to inform.  Ka pai!

STEM Rockets Narrative

Learner: Percy, Towai and Stephan                          Learning Coach: Mr Hattie           Date: 1 November 2016

Learning Area: Learning Habitat 1 - iExplore STEM

Learning Observed

This week Percy, Towai and Stephan  got an opportunity to participate in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) activity. Percy, Towai and Stephan went with Mr Davidson and Mr Hattie to explore how to make rockets fly using chemical reactions. Percy, Towai and Stephan  had three different types of rocket fuel to choose from and they had to make their Rocket - film canister - fly into the air. To make it work you have to mix the rocket fuel and powder together and trap it inside the rocket. The chemical reaction forces the lid to fly off and when the rocket is placed on the launch pad, lid down, it force the rocket into the air. Percy, Towai and Stephan started off a bit “standoffish” but once they saw the rocket launch into the air instantly they were discussing how it happened and what they did to make it fly. Percy was constantly suggesting to use more and when that didn’t work said how about less. They used Connecting and Collaboration wonderfully as they were thinking about what happened and applied it to try something different. They worked extremely well together.

Discussing how they are going to approach the problem.

Next Learning Steps

Percy, Towai and Stephan’s  next learning steps are: Write a reflection about what they learnt. Further explore the science behind the chemical reaction. Write instructions on the blog about how to make a rocket fly.

Curiosity

Learner: Lohit, Hamish and Stephan                                    Learning Coach :R.Moopanar      Date:  23 October 2016  Week 1-2                                         Learning Area: Science

Learning Observed

For the past few weeks the learners have been engaged in a curiosity quest!  The learners were given the choice of 8 curiosity quests which included: Why it is important to learn about eggs, imaginary planets, can humans live on another planet, why are New Zealanders called kiwis, how did dinosaurs live, telling the time and why is the solar system an exciting place - each of which would develop their curiosity.  Lohit, Stephan and Hamish enjoyed the first week of ‘discovery learning’ where they had some choices of tasks to complete to help them get familiar with the planets of the solar system and make connections to their prior knowledge.  They watched videos and created a KWL chart about what they knew and what they wanted to learn about the planets of the solar system.  They created a slideshow of their learning.  Lohit and Stephan also supported Hamish with finding information - great collaboration and leadership.  Thereafter the boys worked collaboratively to design and create a poster to compare and contrast two planets of their choice .  In order to create the poster successfully there was a lot of discussion.  They showed their curiosity, thinking and managing self skills by looking at what others had done and making connections to what they wanted to achieve.  See their presentation here.
