childrens blogs 3
I set my class a task of setting their goals for term four. We discussed the type of things they could work on for the last few weeks of the year. I had a great discussion with my year four students about moving to the senior school and what skills they need to have to make their transistion easier. Because there are some bright sparks in that group our discussion was very focused. They really thought about their individual goals and also what they are looking forward to such as taking a leadership role in the school- librarians, house captains. After reflecting on these goals the children wrote them on their blogs. I was able to read them in the holidays and then set up activites/ programmes for Term 4 that could help them achieve these goals.

What a great idea Gwynneth! I like how you developed programmes for this term to help your children achieve their individual goals that they set at the end of last term!
ReplyDeleteIt sounds like they set really great goals! I'll go on their e-journals and read them!
This is a very useful way to incorporate what children want to learn for themselves into your term programme! I will be interested in how you found this process for yourself Gwynneth!!
ReplyDeleteWell done.
