Had my first day casual teaching back at my Prac school in Wagga Wagga. Got to teach my Year 3's again as well as become familiar with other year groups in the school :) #acuedu_p
Can't believe these 4 years have flown by so quickly!
The Ready, Steady, Teach conference, which I attended the past 2 days, has provided me with those final important steps to begin my career as a teacher.
Looking forward to seeing what the future holds! #acuedu_p
Throughout my previous 7 week prac, I had experience with kids that suffered from anxiety. These 10 ways will help me to comfort and assist my students in my future classroom #acuedu_p
Congratulations to all the ACU 4th Year BEd (Prim) students who completed their final professional experience EDFX444 today! Proud of you all! Another milestone achieved on your career path. Well done! ππ#ACUedu_p
Can't believe how quickly those 7 weeks went! Couldn't have asked for a better rural prac in Wagga Wagga with Year 3, I've learnt and grown so much! Can't wait to venture back to Wagga and continue teaching down there :) #acuedu_p
Here is an example of a Year 3 SMART maths goal that is created by the students with assistance from the teacher. Having a SMART goal allows the students to have an aim in maths and something to strive towards over a given period of time #acuedu_p
Here is a picture of my Year 3 classroom! The mat and the combox are where the students and I gather to have whole class discussions and engage in explicit teaching and learning #acuedu_p
Building relationships with your students is EVERYTHING. Donβt talk to me about anything else in education if relationships hasnβt been first, second, and third on your list of priorities.
My year 3's learning how to use dynamic dialogue effectively in their writing. I wrote a piece of writing that included no dialogue and the students had to insert their own dialogue to make that same piece of writing more engaging! They did so well! #acuedu_p
Love this idea! Shows students you appreciate their hard work and that you notice even the smallest accomplishments. Ending the day with a smile :) #acuedu_p
Celebrating the little victories. I've started to write down at least 1 little victory for each student in my class at the end of the day. Sometimes it can be so easy to focus on the negatives in a lesson that you miss all the positives. #acuedu_p
Here is a work sample of narrative writing done by a student. I was differentiating the task by allowing her to verbally construct her narrative while I wrote it. As you can see with the amount of stamps, everyone was very impressed with what she had completed #acuedu_p
Great to see other schools using the Bump it up strategy to improve their writing! In Year 3 we have begun the editing process of our narratives to make them more engaging #acuedu_p
Today I had the chance to attend a Wellbeing Workshop where we were introduced to the Collaborative and Proactive Solution. This behaviour management solution, developed by Ross Greene, has given me insight into a management technique that I can use in my classroom #acuedu_p
ALL students deserve to reach their full potential, here is an article that shows ways teachers can help students in their classroom achieve their goals @acuedu_p
First day at prac today in Wagga Wagga starting off with a crisp 1 degrees! Year 3 welcomed me with open arms, can't wait to see what the 7 weeks have in store for me :) #acuedu_p
During my Professional Development I am going to work on behaviour management in my Year 3 class in Wagga Wagga.
Below is a video of Bill Rogers showing strategies that I can use in the classroom which I find extremely helpful :) #acuedu_p
