And that concludes 7 weeks of placement… 🥴 It has been an overwhelming and confronting experience over the last 7 weeks. So many emotions, lots of highs and lows, but am feeling grateful to have achieved another milestone ✅ #acuedu_p
My Year 5 students are completing a launch task in maths, using the QUEST problem solving process. It’s amazing to see it in action. The students love it and it is a beneficial tool for students to consolidate and reflect on their learning #acuedu_p
Year 5 had the pleasure of meeting the amazing and inspiring author/ex teacher, Tim Harris this week. The students had such a great time hearing about how he constructed his stories and what inspired his novel writing #acuedu_p
Wishing all the final year ACU BEd(Prim) students starting their final professional experience EDFX444 on Monday all the best. I have every confidence that you will be successful and one step closer to your goal of becoming a fully qualified teacher #acuedu_p
Following the end of Week 1, I’ve really reflected on how managing behaviour, inside and outside of the classroom, must be positive. In turn, the impact of those consequences given and how they influence student learning and their overall well-being at school #acuedu_p
A great lesson to teach students.
All great things have small beginnings.
The Domino Effect
On its own, a domino isn’t much.
But it has the capability of knocking down another one that is 1.5x its size.
Success is sequential.
Understanding the importance of positive behaviour management will change your teaching practices forever. It is so important to teach students how to do the right thing in the classroom, rather than punish them for doing wrong 📚 #acuedu_p
Learning more about how to stay in control of everything, as a teacher, would be excellent! Too often I find myself overwhelmed, unable to juggle the copious amounts of balls up in the air. 🤹🏽♀️ #acuedu_p
This journey has allowed me to discover a range of things about the teaching profession that makes our profession so interesting and so special. There is never a dull moment in the classroom. Most importantly, you need to be organised and stay on top of things. 👩🏽🏫 #acuedu_p
Year 1 made some little Easter baskets today, so that the Easter Bunny can deliver gifts over the holidays. They were very excited!! Our fine motor skills also got a workout…🐣🐇 #acuedu_p
Differentiation is so important in the classroom! Every student must feel known, valued and cared for and differentiating lessons, to cater for their individual needs, is an integral part in achieving this 🍎 #acuedu_p
