Seesaw demonstration

On Monday afternoon the Junior School had a Seesaw demonstration with Gillian. This was a great opportunity to learn more about the app and how we can use it in our classrooms. It's a great tool for children to use to share their learning with their parents and very user friendly for the students. Room 7 had already had a go at using it and had sent home the parent form so they can login to see their child's posts.

Cross Country Marshal

On Thursday 15th August LAS held their annual cross country at Gabriel's Gully. As a teacher at the cross country I was a marshal on the track. This was a great chance to see everyone compete and I enjoyed giving everyone encouragement along the way.

Professional Learning Group - on site visit

On the 14th August I had a 1-1 meeting with Anne Kenneally to discuss my inquiry. I found this very beneficial and got some good ideas. I was able to discuss some activities I had done in class and the student voice I had gained from health sessions this term. Anne shared some useful resources with me to help with my next steps. It was also great to be able to go over the spirals of inquiry and fill this in more. Spiral of Inquiry 2019
