The team are contracted to share their teaching from the planning of a lesson, to the actual teaching of the lesson (filmed by them) to the experience the students engage in, to the teacher reflection of the lesson to the student content captured on their Blogs. What exciting and truly inspiring episodes have been coming on stream from our innovative teachers. We have maths (DMIC teaching), science (Squid dissection and DNA Murder mystery), literacy ( vocabulary in abundance, writing (how to change a tyre on a real car), reading (exciting stories) and design, to share, all of which have been done in an engaging and innovative way. Our teachers are sharing the ‘visible’ kaupapa and creating lessons, which show enjoyment and learning with their learners. Great to see the tech...
