4th Year pre-service teacher & casual primary and preschool teacher 💕

[Ella Hanich @EllaHanich2]

Today I covered RFF (drama) for the first time as a casual. It was great to be able to see how RFF teachers program and plan and how it differs to classroom teachers. #acuedu_p

[Ella Hanich @EllaHanich2]

Can’t believe I just had my last class for the semester. Only one more semester to go!! #acuedu_p

[Ella Hanich @EllaHanich2]

As someone who else does a lot of casual teaching, I think this is a great idea to be able to communicate with the regular classroom teacher. #acuedu_p

I designed and created this relief teacher feedback form after my 8th full week of casual teaching last term…This makes feedback writing so much easier and organised ✨ #acuedu_p

A fabulous resource I found for Reading Comprehension!
Students can draw a star out for the class or an individual to answer! ⭐

We have been doing the reciprocal reading process during guided reading this term. These reciprocal reading cards have been a teacher's best friend! The leader can navigate understanding a text with the group just by following these cards. #acuedu_p

I used this idea on my previous prac - have names of the students in the class on paddle-pop sticks and use this to ask questions/encourage discussion 😊 #acuedu_p

[Ella Hanich @EllaHanich2]

We have begun our Mothers Day gifts that our children will be giving to their Mums. This allowed for the children to create an individual gift which involved lots of love. #acuedu_p

[Ella Hanich @EllaHanich2]

To commemorate the soldiers who were lost, the children in my room made some Anzac Day craft which we displayed around the room for parents to see. #acuedu_p

[Ella Hanich @EllaHanich2]

Last Friday it was Saint Bernadette's day and the whole school had an art competition. This is one of the drawings one of my Year 1's drew of Saint Bernadette. #acuedu_p

[Ella Hanich @EllaHanich2]

I have found that having sentence starters displayed in early years rooms allows for the student's to independently begin simple sentences. #acuedu_p

[Ella Hanich @EllaHanich2]

I think visual timetable's are great for student's of all ages. I have noticed whenever I am casual teaching the student's rely on these timetables to know what is coming next in the day, and they are always able to look forward to something. #acuedu_p

[laurennorman @laurennacu]

Visual timetables are such an excellent way to display the schedule of the day for younger students. #acuedu_p

[Ella Hanich @EllaHanich2]

I agree with how important art lessons are. I also think they allow for children to highlight and showcase their individuality. #acuedu_p

Art lessons: they may be messy but I always love how they turn out!
They are beneficial as they enable teachers to address content from multiple KLAs and also cater for various student abilities. This Kindy lesson connected students’ learning in Religion and English.

This week in my 2-3 years room we focused on Easter and completed a lot of Easter craft. One of our craft activities allowed children to create a chick in their own individual way. Here you can see the wide variety of chicks we got. #acuedu_p

[Ella Hanich @EllaHanich2]

I love this idea, especially ensuring the students use fallen leaves instead of picking it off the tree. This also teachers them sustainability. #acuedu_p

[Rebecca Burgess @MissRBurgess]

Previously I worked with students, as we spoke about all the different colours Autumn has to offer us as we collected fallen leaves to create our own Autumn Collage. The children loved being able to pick their own leaves for their art work. #acuedu_p

[Ella Hanich @EllaHanich2]

I remember doing an assignment on BeeBots and loved the concept of them. Great to see how they can be used in the classroom! #acuedu_p

[Joshua Zammit @Joshua_Zammit_]

This week in mathematics we explored position. We utilised Bee Bots students first learning how to program their bot then creating a map. They were changed to detect the Bee Bots through the obstacles from two grid points selected by their peers. #ACUedu_p.

[Ella Hanich @EllaHanich2]

Ok Friday I casual taught in a kindergarten classroom and loved their quiet zone. This area of the room was so important for all the students to take a moment to calm down at the times they find themselves getting too over simulated. #acuedu_p

[Ella Hanich @EllaHanich2]

I would love to get a rug like this is my preschool room (2-3 year olds). Not only does it give them a spot to sit but it would also help develop their colour recognition. #acuedu_p

[Elise Smallwood @e_smallwood13]

I am absolutely in-love with this rainbow block rug. Excellent for students to know where to sit and makes staggered movement for activities so much easier! #acuedu_p

[Ella Hanich @EllaHanich2]

I think this a fun and creative way to get students confident with numbers. I really like how each of the “hands” and “feet” and different counting strategies. #acuedu_p

[teachwithbreee @teachwithbreee]

finishing off our teen numbers topic with this fun activity #acuedu_p

[Ella Hanich @EllaHanich2]

I love seeing walls like this in classrooms when I casual teach. I feel that giving students these forms of aids allows for them to add it to their own unique work. #acuedu_p

[Ella Hanich @EllaHanich2]

To me assessment should cater to each students abilities and allow for them to demonstrate their own capabilities. Assessment can be both formal and informal ensuring students get ample opportunities to show their knowledge. #acuedu_p
