^{REFLECTION -} ^{Something I am going to trial as a result of my learning is… Having specific lessons at the start of a maths unit. Ensuring that I build all of the students understanding of the key content vocabulary.

I used to think that writing up the maths vocabulary as we came across it as a reference for the students was acceptable. now I think that a specific maths vocabulary session will allow the students to get a true understanding of the key terms and help them understand their meaning through different mathematical units.}]]> 2022-03-22 07:44:25 UTC https://padlet.com/prior_amy/ltg2sm9z609spuyh/wish/2106967056 Numeracy Webinar 1- Setting Up the Conditions for Effective Teaching and Learning in Numeracy https://padlet.com/prior_amy/ltg2sm9z609spuyh/wish/2106985578 Kelly Theunissen
Reflection- Through this webinar I have learnt that the teachers anxieties regarding teaching mathematics and how they have learnt in the past can affect student achievement levels.

Something I would like to implement more in my classroom is an environment that focuses on the mistakes made by students, allowing them to understand that the more mistakes we make the more success and understanding we have for future practice/ lessons. This will allow my class to be more centred around a learning environment and not a 'performance' environment, where students are only focused on answering questions if they believe they are already correct. Similar to how I was taught maths in my primary years. ]]> 2022-03-22 07:57:28 UTC https://padlet.com/prior_amy/ltg2sm9z609spuyh/wish/2106985578 SMART Spelling - full course rileyjessica https://padlet.com/prior_amy/ltg2sm9z609spuyh/wish/2108406094 Jess Toomer-Smith

REFLECTION

Something I am going to trial as a result of my learning…explaining spelling rules to the best of my ability and providing reasons as to why words are spelt the way they are. Continue using correct terminology with students e.g. digraphs, split digraphs.

I used to think… SMART Spelling was all about a “word of the week”.

Now I think… there are many ways to explicitly teach phonics and spelling rules.

I wish I knew… if there is a rhyme or reason to the order in which the spelling focus of the week is selected (beyond SMART foundation)

I used to think that there were a handful of different ways to collect formative assessment. It consolidated my understanding of collecting formative data in the classroom and gave me other methods to do so.

I wish I knew about these other methods of data collection before hand, but it is great for me to now trial these in my own classroom.]]> 2022-03-23 03:47:08 UTC https://padlet.com/prior_amy/ltg2sm9z609spuyh/wish/2108904048 SMART Spelling - Smart Foundation mulderalison https://padlet.com/prior_amy/ltg2sm9z609spuyh/wish/2111564086 Ali Mulder

REFLECTION
Completing this course has broadened my understandings of phonological awareness and the importance of students being able to blend, segment and manipulate sounds.

I used to think that specific terminology such as graph, digraph, split digraph etc. were too confusing for Prep students. I now think that it is important to build correct understandings and terminology from an early age.

I wish I knew some of the simple strategies that were introduced in this course but I am looking forward to incorporating some of them in the spelling program that we will introduce in Term 2.

REFLECTION:
Something I am going to trial as a result of my learning is the use of 'Key Words' on my whiteboard during mini lessons, which was an idea from Rob Vingerhoets. This encourages students to use subject-specific vocab and also gives them the language to reflect upon what they have learned. It is also a behaviour management tool as you are able to hype up students who contribute valuable ideas, by putting their ideas in the key words section.
