Thank you

Apart from a small internet glitch with Liz's Google and Moodle session (i.e. no internet....), our first Professional Learning morning appeared to go well. A big thank you to Liz, Adrienne, Sylvia and Tina for running the sessions on offer. We all appreciate the time and effort you have put in.

As part of the next steps planning, can you please take the time to give us feedback at https://goo.gl/forms/pPUb0C7e4NkuT8c53

Graphic Organizers: Ditch that Textbook. (Link to Resources found here)

Google Docs has a variety of shareable resources that are readily available for you to make a copy of and add to your own drive.
Google drawing is a way to use many of the paper graphic organizers that you may have used in the past. The advantage of using different organizers in Google drawing is that you are able to get students to collaborate on the one document which is easily viewable by you as the teacher. For example - creating a timeline or using a Fishbone planner around advantages and disadvantages.
A great set of resources, editable Graphic Organizers, have been created by 'Ditch that Textbook' to use directly with your classes. Great for higher order thinking activities with your BYOD classes.


Professional Development

1. If you have an interest in ILE and would like to different ways of delivering the curriculum then you may be interested in attending the Grow Waitaha hui to be held at Rolleston College.


2. Middle leaders - if you would like to contribute to research on Middle leaders in NZ schools, there is a survey that you could contribute to:
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/MILResearch 
It takes about 5 mins to complete.
