Thank you to everyone for coming into school this week to listen to the children talk through their learning pathways. We were proud of the way the children are taking ownership and we are starting to see some true 'student led learning'. The way the children are managing their time and requesting lessons to fulfill their goals is impressive. Remember to check in from time to time at home with your child's progressions by asking them to show you through their OneNote. There is also a page in here that explains our homework expectations for 2017.
Responding to Feedback
This week we have been focusing on responding to feedback, as well as giving constructive feedback. Click on the link below to watch a short 6 minute clip we shared with the children. The children have been asked to 'think like an editor' just like Austin was asked to 'think like a scientist' and critique and improve their writing by doing a second draft. The improvement from the first to second draft was really noticeable. What would happen after 6 drafts?
