STEAM Narrative

Learner: Samar, Towai, Mahi, Seraya, Ricky, Katherine and Percy Learning Coach: Mr Hattie          Date:2 Sept 2016

Learning Area: Learning Habitat 1 - iExperience

Learning Observed

Samar, Towai, Mahi, Seraya, Ricky, Katherine and Percy have had an experience at Ormiston Senior College. They went over to learn about to show change in nature using art. Samar, Towai, Mahi, Seraya, Ricky, Katherine and Percy had to brainstorm, plan, draft and create three black and white pictures that show change. For example, an egg, a chick and a rooster or matches, camp fire, bush fire. This was a hard task to complete within 1 hour. The learners first saw some examples and drafted their “Thumbnail” pictures. This is a new skill they learnt from the educator. Next they got started with drawing and cutting out of their 3 pictures. While they were working I noticed the different ideas and level of Capabilities they showed. Samar, Mahi, Seraya and Katherine were very excited about their ideas. They were done very quickly and had plenty of time to make sure that they had each part perfect. Percy and Towai were building their Capabilities with cutting and making sure that they had cut on the line.  Ricky was very excited about his fish. He has a whole story about what was happening. The biggest fish was eating the littler fish and that fish was eating the smallest one.

Next Learning Steps

NAMEs next learning steps are to: Write a procedural piece about what they did. Reflect on how they went. Try the task again and focus on what they want to improve on.

Stonewall iExplore Narrative

Learner: Ouryu, Percy, Towai, Akshdeep, Kah Jun and Katherine Learning Coach: Mr Hattie          Date:19 August 2016

Learning Area: Learning Habitat 1 - iExplore

Learning Observed

In iExplore we have a small group that is Collaborating on an iExplore to gain more Capabilities around iExplore. Ouryu, Percy, Towai, Akshdeep, Kah Jun and Katherine are looking at making board games. For this iExplore to be successful we are needing to explore some board games to gain ideas and tips about how we can create a game of our own. I introduced them to the game Stonewall, as this is what our Hapu group is named after. While the learners were playing this game they had to write down important parts of board games that will help us make our own. Ouryu, Percy, Towai, Akshdeep, Kah Jun and Katherine were in teams and they were very excited about this game. The different Capabilities that were being used to understand how to play were very impressive. Kah Jun, Akshdeep, Percy and Ouryu were in the same team and they were talking about how this board game was easy to understand. They wrote down that their game had to be simple. Katherine was with some of her friends and she noticed that there weren’t many rules and she thought that she didn’t want many rules. Towai thought that the part about sending people back to the start made the game funny and he said that he wants to have something like that in his game. I am looking forward to seeing what they can come up with for their own board games.

Evidence of learning

We're excited about blocking others. Katherine and her group were trying to figure out the strategy

Next Learning Steps

Ouryu, Percy, Towai, Akshdeep, Kah Jun and Katherine’s next learning steps are to: Write instructions for their games. Create a theme for their games. Create a board and pieces for their games.

iReflection

I learnt that to be a good reader you to practice and read lots of books to be a good reader.

I was proud of my speech because I got my planing and writing my speech in my learning book and I hope I get it finished by the time it is time to read my speech.

My goal for tomorrow is to get my speech done and my Q-cards done for the speech.

THE END.

Gardening iExplore Narrative

Learner: Maanvi, Kim, Cassandra, and Katherine    Learning Coach: Mr Hattie          Date:2016

Learning Area: Learning Habitat 1 - iExplore

Learning Observed

Maanvi, Kim, Cassandra, and Katherine for iExplore are showing their Capabilities with organising an iExplore about a Gardening Competition. This will be run across the entire school. Today they were working on getting the garden prepared for each plot. For this they had to learn about meter rulers and find the area and perimeter of the garden bed. This was new learning for all. Maanvi, Kim, Cassandra, and Katherine were really excited about their new learning. Once they knew how big the garden area was they had to section it off for each plot. For this they stapled string to the garden to section it off. Maanvi, Kim, Cassandra, and Katherine were using the string and staple gun to mark out the section. For this they had to Collaborate and make sure that it was straight and the correct size. (nameS_) all worked very well together and have shown their Capabilities with Math and iExplore.

Evidence of learning

Next Learning Steps

Maanvi, Kim, Cassandra, and Katherine’s next steps are to: Collect entries for the gardening competition. Write a reflection about their iExplore Use area in other areas to make Connections

Inference Literacy Narrative

Learner: Amolak, Brian, Kavish, Christian, Aditi, Katherine and Maanvi                 Learning Coach: Mr Hattie          Date: 4 May 2016

Learning Area: Learning Habitat 1 - Literacy

Learning Observed

Today in literacy we had a cross ability inferencing Reading session. We were looking at what inferencing is and how to use clues in the text to solve inference questions. To do this we played the game River Crossing Puzzle. This is a problem solving game where you have to get the family across the river by following the rules. The way we looked at inference questions were the learners were given clues to help solve the puzzle. They had to use their Capabilities and Collaboration skills to discuss how the clue helps. They used their reading Capabilities to link the clues to the text (the instructions). Here is what the learners learnt: Aditi: Today I learnt how to inference. We played a game called river crossing where you have to talk to others. You have look a the puzzle  carefully at the text to figure out the answer. Brian: Today I have learn that inferencing is by share  ideas to other people and they share answers to you so you and your partners can figure it out. Maanvi:Today I learned to Inference. We played a game and I did Inferencing. It means to solve out the meaning of the text, estimate, find the clues and show don’t tell Kavish: Today I have  learned about Inferencing that means you have to take the clues from the text and and find it.    Christian:I learnt what inferencing means, it is solving clues and mysteries. Amolak: I learnt that inferencing means share ideas and solving clues. Katherine: I learnt that inference is where you Collaborate with your ideas with other people and find the meaning in the text.

Next Learning Steps

Our next learning steps are to: Solve inference questions using a story text. Understand the difference between literal and inferential questions.

Literacy Circles Narrative Assessment

Learner:Katherine, Selestine, Norah, Gracy, Aryan and William                              Learning Coach: Mr Hattie         Date: 3 March 2016

Learning Area: Learning Habitat 1 - Literacy

Learning Observed

For literacy the Death Star group are starting Literacy Circles. This is a learner book club where they are in charge of their learning and have roles they need to perform in the group meetings about the text. We started with breaking down what we view as an effective group and the different things we need to accomplish for the literacy circle. We brainstormed many ideas and created a wordle to present our findings. Also we did the same for what an effective group member looks like. We had our first meeting today and we managed to get through most of the roles before the time was up. This means that for next time the learners are going to have direct the meeting and not get of topic. This will help the learners break down the text and understand it better. The learners have been showing the Vision Principles of Capable and Collaborate as the learners are working as a group and having to use the reading skills and strategies they have to produce a high understanding of the text.

Evidence of learning

The Death Star’s Group working on the wordle about an effective learning and what makes a good literacy circle. The is the wordle for what makes an effective learner

Next Learning Steps

The Death Star’s group next steps are to: guide the conversation around the text smoothly. Use inferencing to find the meaning behind the words.

Katherine, Jasmin & Alysia - RESPECT iExplore Learning Story

Learners:  Alysia, Katherine & Jasmin   Learning Coach: D. Wilkes          Date: 5.2.16

Learning Area: iExplore - Social Science

Learning Observed

In the first week of school Alysia, Katherine & Jasmin opted into an iExplore around ‘respect’ ultimately creating a product using a digital media.  One of the key purposes of this was to become more familiar with our OrmPS Learning Model. The girls embarked on some important foundational learning around respect and made connections to the Treaty of Waitangi as well.  Katherine and Alysia are beginning to understand that people have social, cultural, and economic roles, rights, and responsibilities and that cultural practices reflect and express people’s customs, traditions, and values.  Jasmin enjoyed working with a range of other learners and is beginning to understand how people make significant contributions to New Zealand’s society and that we all have rights and responsibilities.  Working with other learners, the girls began the learning adventure by unpacking the word ‘respect’  being curious around what  it means to them? why is it important? using the mini-whiteboards.  They had an opportunity to see the Treaty of Waitangi and to make the connection that it was an agreement grounded in respect.  They had some fun ideating ‘what would you have on your treaty should aliens comes to live on planet Earth?’ After that, the girls really enjoyed thinking about how we ‘Respect self’  ‘Respect Others’ and ‘Respect Environment’ at OrmPS and came up with some fantastic contributions- particularly around respecting others.  They then collaborated to create a media product which they could present to the wider group and they selected Tellagami (see image below).  I was so pleased with how Katherine and Alysia worked as capable role models for Jasmin.  Ka Pai!

Evidence of learning

RESPECT iExplore presentation

Next Learning Steps

Start an iExplore learning journey carefully using the OrmPS learning model Complete their Tellagami and present to a group Continue to work collaboratively with learners who are not in their immediate social circle Use the vocabulary and NZSL signs that learn in other learning areas Grow their capabilities with other digital tools through practice eg. Pic Collage, Sock Puppets, Puppet Pals, iMovie etc.

my reflection with gary

Today we learned about.....

Gary learnt about.  Katherine learnt about...
About how to make a superhero and with mrs hicky.
About how to be a digital cidistionship  leader.


Our next learning steps are....

Making sure that we learn more things and
have more time to do more learning
because we love doing learning with other people.




 

Jasmine, Katherine, Dhillon, Nima & Daisy's Connected Challenge Learning Story

Learners: Jasmin, Katherine, Dhillon, Nima & Daisy     Learning Coach: T.Dillner           Date: 5.2.16

Learning Area: iExperience - Relating to Others

Learning Observed

This term our focus is on how we can be connected citizens. To introduce this, the Learning Coaches set up a series of challenges for the learners to complete. Each challenge was worth a different amount of points and the teams had to work together to get the highest amount to win. One task was to get all team members to cross the ‘Nile River’ (the width of one netball court) using only three hoops. Jasmin, Katherine, Dhillon, Nima and Daisy had to discuss ways to make this work before attempting it. They needed to think about how their words, actions, attitudes and ideas impacting the success of the team. Each learner was able to act in a collaborative way in order to achieve the joint goal of crossing the ‘river’. They were capable of devising a method to connect their strengths and remain safe from the Nile Crocodiles!

Evidence of learning

Next Learning Steps

Swap roles so other members of the team retrieve or replace the hoops. Make a point to do some iDevelop learning with one of their team members and build this relationship.
