🌟 The zoom games were a superhit this week.
I had a party with my kids at 2.00 clock today, because I have to keep my windodw open so i called them too (wicked me). We played dumb charades and children came dressed in smart partywear clothes. They had fun.
🌟I made audiobooks which my kids found very interesting and they are demanding more.
🌠My goal for next week is to learn Google Slides in a productive way.

2. They have been able to familiarise themselves with the names of music notes (e.g. Crotchet, Minim, Dotted Minim, Semibreve and Crotchet Rest) and their values and could demonstrate their understanding through clapping activity and/or by playing an instrument (Recorder, Keyboard or virtual Keyboard).

The Digital Entrepreneurship Day was a grand success because it gave students the opportunity to display all the ATL skills and many learner profile attributes.I have learned how to use google form for collecting data and using the same for class reflection/ designing further learning engagements.
I am making video whenever I am teaching a new concept, students are responding favorably and this is minimizing the gap.
I will continue to explore on different ways of reducing screen time.

# data[].attributes.body
This week, grade 3 students performed activities by integrating PE with math. Grade 1 performed mass drill with props (spoons).
Other grades' students played target hitting games. They used light weight objects(empty water bottles, tooth paste boxes etc.,) as targets & hit them with paper balls.
The PE classes this week were very exciting & fun filled for the students as some of their siblings have also joined in the fun activities.

My goal for upcoming week is introducing dance in PE.

This week, the business plan presentations went well. All the assessors were full of praises for the students for their creativity and hard work.
Some students also tried Entrepreneurship Day at home and shared their learning through reflections.
I would like to use Flipgrid with my students next week.

# data[].attributes.body
* Successfully created nearpod lessons and children found them interesting...they also had something to refer to after the Zoom
*I used screencastify to correct the reports written by children. It is very easy and definitely more helpful in giving feedback.
* I would like to explore Flipgrid and Buncee. Want to understand how it will enhance my online lessons.

# data[].attributes.body
This week students have done some interesting and exciting yoga postures like head stand, front roll, back roll, crow posture, spider postures etc. Had to face the challenge of stopping the class on time, because they were not ready to stop the class and leave on time and wanted to continue enjoying their views upside down on camera after the completion of head stand posture. This lesson has helped improve their confidence level and make them more courageous.

# data[].attributes.body
I researched ideas to share with my HRT's to implement them as energizers.
I made audiobooks to share with Ms. Veena and Ms. Sue. These books can be shared with students in reading and listening.
I am going to continue making books online, and I planned to release them on two different padlet links. Students and teachers can access it as per their teaching and learning requirements.
My Goal is to continue understanding the needs of my students to help them accordingly.

*Segregation of 2 groups did help me a lot to make proper planning by focusing in the learning outcomes.

* Learners exhibited enthusiasm throughout this week. They came up with different explorations and made independent choices to continue the process of learning.
We had amazing zumba sessions, fun games and intensifying fun activities.

* I would like to introduce audio books to my learners by collaborating with Ms. Veena.

# data[].attributes.body

1.My kids had amazing week my weekly overview helping  parents to plan the day with they child this helping me plan more intresting activities for upcoming weeks.

2.This week i started with warm up dance every child enjoyed dancing. Parents uploaded the student work in seesaw i can see kids are learning to be independent day by day.

3.My goal is to plan more fun activities and help my kids develop confidence level and help them develop gross motor, fine motor, Language and Social skills.

# data[].attributes.body

# data[].attributes.body
- I was super excited to see the Grade 3 students work for the Entrepreneurship Day. They created brilliant presentations, and online videos. Their confidence level was amazing!!!

- Makerspace project - Grade 2 students have started planning and creating their Makerspace project for the  unit "Innovation". Some respite from screen time!!!

My Goal -  To make the activities more fun for the kids & less screen time :)

# data[].attributes.body
1. I was able to accomplish my goal of helping students to annotate a document shared with them on screen. Some of them found it difficult to understand verbal instruction about it. Hence I used Screencastify to  create a video explaining it from the point of view of a participant.
2. Zoom Games are a hit among the students.
Goals: I will work on implementing strategies to make my instructions brief and clear.

# data[].attributes.body
* The Nearpod lessons have become interactive. I have added activities and quizzes and hence, children are engaged.
* At first, doing the activities in real time was a challenge, however, I modified my approach. I did explore Flipgrid and Buncee. Flipgrid as of now is not of much use to me. I am interested in Buncee, however, there is a minimum fee to be paid.
Goal - If I am able to find a way of getting Buncee, then I would like to explore it.

# data[].attributes.body
This week,  Jumba dance was
introduced in PE classes, except for Grade 2. Will introduce for them next week.
Students enjoyed Jumba dance a lot & on some occasions, they requested for doing one more time, even after the class time is over. Loved their participation and enthusiasm.

Few students had issues with their internet, which was a challenge this week.

Goal- Will teach the students basic TT skills. (with available props similar to TT rackets)
Will introduce Jumba for Grade2 students.

The yoga classes were well received by the students and they seemed to be enjoying different postures. Most of them wanted to experiment more and were trying to go beyond their limitations in doing the postures to make it more perfect.

# data[].attributes.body
* Thanks to flipgrid! We had amazing, fun-loving activities on flipgrid related to exploration and prediction.

* Teaming up learners in the game ( stone, paper, scissor) was such a bliss! We always kick-start our day with different rejuvenating games.

* The farm shop activity for learners came out well as they were engaged in creating advertising posters, price-list as well as enacting creative roles of shopkeepers.

*We did integrate music to audible stories. Learners were instructed to first follow the audible story and then think creatively to produce different sounds. They came up with their kitchen items to cardboard etc etc. It was so engaging!

* My goal for the next week will be stressing on language and numeracy concepts.
I would love to continue with audible books with adding up to comprehension. Screencastify would also be added to the do- list.
Last but not the least, every Friday, I would encourage my learners to come up with one mini-project.

# data[].attributes.headline

I have used nearpod and found the library quite resourceful, but nevertheless the process of making a lesson is time taking. I have used A-Z and Epic quite a lot for my English and UOI lessons. Most of tasks in seesaw are original.
My Goal this week is to explore audible and hopefully find an audio book which aligns with my current unit. Reema Mitra 8/5/20

My last week has gone really well. My students were happy with the activities which I had assigned to them on seesaw.
They had learned to make colour poems and created poem for their mommies on the occasion of Mother's day.

Goal: My goal for the new week is to give more pastoral care to my students during this distance learning programme which is quite a bit challenging.
Most likely, I will arrange a tea-time (10-15mins) in the evening for my students to chit-chat with their friends. This will help them to share their feelings with one-another.

This week was fantastic! I was able to contribute in many ways towards online learning and teaching. I got a chance to take classes in breakout rooms.

Posted a word document of games and links to online energizers on google drive for other teachers to use. Recorded audiobooks to share with Ms. Sue and Ms. Veena, so that they can use them in their reading lessons. Goals - I wish to complete the recording audiobooks as soon as possible to share with students.I am trying to invite a yoga teacher for students to teach basic asanas. I am aspiring that all my students should learn to live a balanced life during the time of holidays.

I accomplished my goal to use Flipgrid with my students. They are enjoying it.
We started with poetry and our new unit on 'How We Express Ourselves' focusing on 'Communication'. Students are learning varied ways to express themselves through Kennings(poems) and performing role-plays in breakout rooms. It was a fun-learning week.
To reduce screen time further and focus more on reading and writing learning outcomes are my goals for next week.

Introduced Jumba for Grade 2 students. They enjoyed the movements & performed actively.

The other grades were introduced to basic TT skills.
They enjoyed the learning a lot & some students used cooking pans as TT rackets, as they did not have them. It was fun for the students learning TT with cooking pans.

The week was filled with fun & enthusiasm.

The best thing was probably the Nearpod lesson on Pitch with grade 2, including fun with oscillators from Chrome Music Lab. Students also discovered the musical saw.
Reflecting back, I am glad I learnt to use Camscan and then combined Screencastify and Youtube to adapt a reading of Peace at Last for particular purposes with grade 1. It was a mega battle because of a poor internet connection.
I need to collaborate more and I need the students to collaborate more.
Goal: Reduce students' work load on Seesaw.

The sounds scavenger hunt worked well with grade 1. I was boosted by Chloe's visit and positive comments.
+
With grade 3,
Playing Kahoot
was such a hoot!
I learnt from them about replaying and comparing results but mostly was reminded what fun I have myself when the students are having fun. I need to add this to my own personal playful learning indicators - even if the fun is in observing rather than joining in.
Goal:
I am using "cookie cutters" too much so my goal this week is to try to free up some activities so students have more agency.
Another aim is to have fun myself and worry less.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Unimaginable level of student agency
2. Students work on collaborative assignments by scheduling their own meetings- Lockdown can not take away the spirit of collaboration

Goal:
Stay calm and reflect on the statement 'Less is more'
A clean, productive fun-filled wrap up of the unit.

Last week was quite smoother. I had organised a virtual b'day party for a child in my class. Giving more time to listening them at this stage will help to develop their social-emotional well being.

2) Planning for another evening with my kids. (tea time)

This week, students practiced Stepper Aerobics, which is quite a new experience for most of them. This involved of using a chair (an easy available thing at home) as stepper to do the aerobics.

-I have used Nearpod successfully, created lessons and used the activities like open ended question, fill in the blanks etc I have not been able to find time to try out Buncee. With PTMs happening next week I'm not sure I may get time to explore.
-Since we are nearing the end of our unit, I would like to use some days towards revisiting essential topics like contractions, when to use the apostrophe, helping children spell using syllabification.

# data[].attributes.body
This week we talked about SDGs and students took actions where they have designed e-posters, slogans, poems, tongue twisters, songs which we will be sharing on different social platforms to spread awareness (twitter, Facebook & LinkedIn).

Next week, we will end this unit by posting our work on social media + class party!

30th May:
The last week was completely occupied by students. They had designed their home learning pack and gave year reflection. Some students were busy in promoting their action on social networking sites.

Goal:

1) I will try to get in touch with my students once in fortnight.

2) Reading books

# data[].attributes.body
* The PTMs were good, parents were happy with the progress seen in their children and appreciated me telling them exactly the strengths and areas for improvement of their children.
-It is really helpful to have dedicated lessons to correct some common errors seen in children's work and writing. e.g. using the apostrophe

+ Finding lots of student responses to activities on Seesaw. Grade 2 did a fun sound map and some made a poem from the onomatopoeia. Grade 1 student made up stories with sound effects.
+ Collaborating and making connections with Chloe's poetry unit.
Goal: Not to forget everything I have learnt in the past 2 years and especially regarding the Pedagogy Of Play. To let fun and student focus rule over worry and perfectionism.

When the distance learning starting last month, I was worried, a bit. But our kids are amazing & by the end of first week, they adapted easily to the distance learning mode. They showed excellent self-management skills & have overcome the challenges like space, time, safety & resources required for learning PE.

As our summer fitness program starts from Monday, looking forward to it.

30th May 2020

The month went by in a jiffy!

Since it is the time of the year which has to do a lot with reflections from the parents and students, I enjoyed reading the reflections to learn from them.

It gave me a chance to know more about myself as a leader of the pack. Mostly all good.

GOAL for next year: In these reflections, I came to know that sometimes as Grade two teachers we assume a lot. 'The students have learned how to use seesaw, and one lesson with Ms. Mita for the new ones is enough'. Some kids who were scared of technology always chose written or spoken task. I assumed that they do not like gadgets and working on the iPad. In fact, I should have given them more chances to work on iPad to break the fear and give them more practice. Because these children showed such good responses in the DLP which was totally dependant on gadgets. Next year I will not make this mistake.

This week, students reflected on the yoga poses that have learned throughout the Distance Learning Programme. Reading the yoga flash cards, they have recollected the poses that they learned in yoga lessons. They have demonstrated the poses and explained the benefits of the various yoga poses. Kids have enthusiastically played the games. It was a wonderful session of reflection of their learning. (Please see the below video).

I loved the entire distance learning journey. Although in the beginning I was full of apprehensions. My little ones surprised me everyday. Specially the ones who rarely responded in class. This cohort will be remembered for the following:
1. Use of technology
2. Problem solving
3. Trend setters
4. Action takers
The summer pack shared with the students balances agency and structure.
Finally, I am extremely thankful to the parents for supporting me in everything I wanted to do. They facilitated student collaboration after school time by creating Zoom links, whatsapp call etc. In this way 'WE' sustained the spirit of collaboration even in lock down.!
The Passion Project enabled us to work beyond the curriculum, feedback from the dignitaries gave me a lot of perspective and would definitely consider them next year.

*The distance Learning Program was a great way for me to strengthen my skills and knowledge in Educational Technology. I have learn so much in these 2 months and now am excited and motivated to learn more.
*I really enjoyed preparing for the POP Celebration and the main event itself. It always feels so good to discuss from the people who are already experienced. I have more clarity now and I am going to make a conscious effort to use the indicators of play to plan all my learning engagements.
-My wish is that we get enrolled into a proper pd based on visible thinking or POP...either sponsored by school or even partly funded.

*I have learned a lot in this 2 months and what a change I have noticed I have seen a lot of difference in my student behaviour and they became more independent and focused. I started with a question in my mind how am going to do this online classes with my little ones and how will this learning help them through online? My 1st week was not so good and my little one’s ware getting distracted. I started looking for more ideas online and started planning it in more fun way and with the help of Ms. Chloe feedback and my 2nd week was amazing and everyone was actively taking part in all activities and enjoyed attending zoom.
*From this distance learning program, I have improved my knowledge and upgraded my skills and POP was another learning when I was working with my team I got to learn a lot of new things about IB planning my team it was amazing to work with Ms. Anjum and Ms. Abha. I am looking forward for more learning and exploring my skills in upcoming year.
