Y5 Biography Writing Unit: Immersion phase - Reading like a writer. Analysing text by identifying questions author may have asked to obtain info. Inspired by @Mattglover123 @GuyClaxton’s Split Screen: ATL developed during learning- students amazed to see how many skills applied!

@SaraKAhmed Thanks Sara! Much of my work is inspired by educators like you! This time, we started the learning by reading 'The One Thing You'd Save' by @LindaSuePark (reco by @kiwibronny) which prompted interesting discussion around values & identity. @BQDressler- you would 🩷 this book!

Use of agree/disagree socratic circle discussion to lead into #inquirymaths place value provocation. Great way to gauge prior knowledge, generation questions and create excitement & interest to start unit. Reflected with 'Ah ha!' statements. @inquirymaths #pyp #mathschat #p4c

This is a sad day 💔 🇦🇺 fear over compassion? "Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts." - Winston Churchill To those who campaigned for no: How do we ensure we give a voice to the under represented? How do we ensure people hear?

@sherrattsam @FleiszigLana I found this clarification around “explicit” very useful. I thought that “explicit” referred to “direct”. A definite ‘I used to think/Now I think’ moment! Thank you both.

Exploring the role of explicitness in the teaching of Mathematics at our school, with @FleiszigLana nothing is “by chance”, everything is intentional and explicit. #scopuspyp

Y6 engaged in a series of connected tasks that required deep reflection & thinking to uncover an ‘I am’ statement. Prompted brave sharing and empathetic listening. Statements really reflect context. Inspired by @SaraKAhmed ‘Being the Change’ ❤️. #identity #pypchat @MountScopus

The buzz is already a bit more palpable in the upper primary courtyard as the grade 4&5’s prepare to open their marketplace to the public! Goods and services enterprises created by the students in support of their year-long service partners. @UWCThailand #ibpyp #pypchat @ibpyp
