The Form One Laptops are here! Teachers and Administrators have gone for ICT infusion training and the next stage is to roll out training for the rest of staff as well as to create a bank of lessons for teachers to work and improve upon for their classes.
For the very least we have started the dialogue on how we teach today's students who are millennial learners. There is talk about differentiated instruction, learning styles, multiple intelligences and alternative assessments. Even more talk about instructional leaders, school leadership, motivation and curriculum planning.
Time for Literacy Action! I will be blogging about my efforts from next term as I seek to champion the literacy aspect of all that we do. Now that I am acting as Vice Principal (I don't know for how long but it is a learning experience) and as a soon to be Reading Specialist, I will see how much influence I can exert on my colleagues to collaborate on Literacy Matters.
Join me on my Literacy Quest as I take along my Literacy Bag!
For now all the best for 2011 and have a Holy and Merry Christmas!
