Today during our Daily 3 Shaval chose Maths with Someone and began teaching Melissa a card game.  The focus for this particular activity shows Shaval is able to articulate her thinking skills and share her knowledge. Both learners were capable of working collaboratively and were able to complete the task without guidance - Self management.  Our learners always enjoy the opportunity to connect and work with others. Learner voice:   Shaval “This is called Speed, and it’s good for your Maths ‘cos you count down or up”.

Learning Area: iExperience  Developing our capabilities

Learning Observed

During iExperience Week 1 Term 3 we were exploring what “being capable” means for us as learners and how we can develop our capabilities. The groups of learners experienced a range of fun tasks and their challenge was to participate and collaborate to improve their skills. This led to talking about setting goals to help us improve our capabilities. This group of learners set a goal to balance their spoons at the same time. After their rotation of different fun tasks the learners gathered together to think and discuss what being a capable learner would look like. They came up with these ideas: being independent; having an attitude of “I can do it”; being confident; being persistent and not giving up; trying things in different ways and self managing themselves. They also made the connections with ways they could develop your capabilities:  by training your brain by practicing and  remembering, trying your best, working hard, having an open mindset to try and learn new things and setting goals. They were  introduced to the SMART acronym to help with setting goals. The learners had time to think about the things they were capable at and then consider the areas they need to develop their capabilities in. The learners were then asked to think of 4 goals for themselves . An academic goal,a social goal, a physical goal and a #oresome goal.
