Tarro Public School

Extremely proud to have shared Tarro’s journey to improve P-K transition practices @ the ‘Better Together Transition Showcase’. An inspiring event talking to a room full of teachers, educators, allied health professionals and support workers. #supportingourlittlestlearners

Stage 3 worked with Stage 1 on understanding division and making groups of. The older students created the LISC and planned the lesson sequence over 2 lessons to engage and support hands on learning #goalgetters #divisionistricky

Maths cycle planning day. How can we effectively embed number strands across all concepts? How can we ensure students are exposed to surface, deep and transfer learning? What does a quality maths lesson look like? What is the data telling us? #sweatyteacherbrains #collaborative

The first literacy planning day of the year. The room may have been full of sweaty brains however it was also filled with a team eager to improve their practice and support student achievement in reading #scienceofreading #phonicsisfun #integratedliteracyblock

Today we had the opportunity to fill the buckets of students and their families living in flood ravaged Lismore. More than 100 backpacks were donated by our local community, filled with school supplies! Thanks to @thebqckpackventure for helping us help them. #teamwork

Mid point check maths check in for the first cycle of the year. What is the data telling us? Are there trends across the cohorts? Where to next? I wonder if…… #mathgroups #fluidandflexible #trackingthedata

Student led discussions resulting in a common understanding of the importance of text structure and text features. The final result…4 WAGOLL’s that every student contributed to. #stage3 #qualitytexts #collaborativediscussion

Supporting our colleagues and their communities in northern NSW. Tarro has teamed up with The Backpack Ventures to gather much needed supplies for Lismore. Our donation pyramid is starting to take shape! #teamTarro #floodsupport #teamwork

Planning day for 2022 Maths. Changing our mindset, unpacking the curriculum, building the blocks and supporting understanding of what good looks like in the classroom #teamtarro #LISC #Changingitupin22

#teamTarro spent the afternoon engaged in thinking about thinking. Metacognitive strategies - how effectively do we teach students to engage in productive struggle and support them to develop a toolbox of strategies? @CorwinAU @Lyn_Coote #sweatybrains #metacognitiveSC

When is a maths lesson not just a maths lesson?? When the end result of a weeks work is this! Collaboration at its best to deep dive into 3D space, position, measurement, area and geometry. @LSCshane @Lyn_Coote #VLmathsinaction

Pj’s swapped for a uniform, screens swapped for desks and talking to people IRL!!!! Perfect start to the week having our 3-6 students back with us. #teamtarro #thewayitshouldbe
