As part of my journey beyond my comfort zone in every way you can imagine - I am now a follower of Twitter discovering a wealth of educational observations and thinking that will impact on my world. I am a follower of Claire Amos and my Principal - Neil Fraser.
My eyes have been opened to the resources out there - people and things. Of note this week have been Blended Classroom where Framing, Showing What You Know and Peer Tutoring are outlined - 'stuff' we know as teachers but forget to reflect on. My goal for the nest three weeks is to make sure I implement these ideas.
From a Tweet from Claire Amos I read a post from Lea Vellenoweth's Blog - "Into the Future - Teaching and Learning" where she talked about Big Picture Education happening at Hobson Point Secondary School. From this blog posting I have ordered a book - 'One Kid at a Time - Big Lessons from a Small School'. I am hoping that this text can help clarify my thinking about where we are wanting to go in our school.
