Term4+2009

Looking for our agenda? Here it is! Projection Sheet?

Great News! For our second half of the workshops, we may have Geff Roma and Lee Fuller on board, with the possibility of Kerry Eva running a library specific session.

Here is a framework for a suggested planner for term 4. If we can get most of this structured before the day, I'd like spend a part of our planning day working out some moderated rich Maths and English assessment tasks. ie: correlating scores on a test with a VELS standard. It would also be really useful to have a completed portfolio for grades 3 and 4 by the end of the day. It would be useful to write up some shared comments for our reports - ie: Integrated studies. Number || Week Date. || English || Maths || Integrated || Moderated Assessment || Assessment Piece / Portfolio Item || Notes: || Excursion to Emerald Museum Murrindindi (cost) || Using the Dust Echoes off the ABC site, ask students to tell the story that goes with the images. Scaffold this by using four or five prior to the moderated assessment task. Kids can then do this as a pair, and finally individually. School Fair ||
