Team Minutes Term 2 2015

Team Minutes Term 1 2015

Maths: Professional Learning Community

Reflection in Computer Use and Questioning skills in Room 21

Today I adapted how I would go about administering computers in the classroom. Instead of allowing students to use them, they had to clearly articulate how they would use them. -Students needed to show the "Inquiry Question" they were wanting to "find out". I then read the question and gave feedback on their question, before letting them go away and research. -This really helped me keep in touch, and control, how students were using the Computers when they had them. It also helped me assess students capabilities of forming "GOOD" questions. -Students enjoyed their success too:)

Leadership Goals 2015

Leadership 2015 is my second year of leading a team of teachers. I am a team leader of Te Aroha and have the privilege of working with Amanda Carrington, Gareth Haman, and Cayne Schooley. My goals for 2015 are: Continue to build leadership skills and capacity to support and effectively run a team of 4 – Professional Learning that supports this development would be beneficial. Further refine and develop systems to create a collaborative team environment. Continue to lead teacher development using the Knowledge Building Inquiry Cycle (normalise into practice across the curriculum).
