I am very much looking forward to meeting my Year 2 class and learning valuable knowledge over the next six weeks. Good luck to everyone starting prac! #ACUedu_p
Today is #InternationalMuseumDay!
Museums make us wonder & also #connect us β nothing sparks a conversation like learning something new together. At the Vatican Museum, beauty creates communion. Journey back in time via virtual tour: https://t.co/dJuJ8RVRPV #MuseumFromHome
@madilakeman@JessicaPiperata and I just completed and presented our conveyor belt science toy for our Science unit at Uni for a stage 2 classroom! This toy enables exploration of non contact forces, twisting motions and friction in our physical world. #acuedu_p
Classroom Screen is a great tool to use on the interactive whiteboard! It can be used in so many ways such as rolling dice, setting a timer or stopwatch, behaviour management symbols and more! @Classroomscreen#ACUedu_p

Create eggshell chalk, learn about plant transpiration, or construct a homemade lava lamp! @WeAreTeachers has science experiment ideas that students can do right from home using household materials! https://t.co/Q7thMPUB38
'I have, who has' cards are a great warm up activity to use in mathematics! It's a fun activity that allows all students to be involved and engaged in learning! #ACUedu_p
Thinking routines are fundamental in promoting the development of student thinking within the classroom. Here are some great thinking routine templates that can be implemented to challenge your students thinking https://t.co/w0jKC19xHm #ACUedu_p
I love the learning opportunities that baking brings! Children can learn about whole numbers, fractions, mass, volume & capacity, temperatures - and even discover how science is linked to baking! #ACUedu_p
The Lighthouse is a fantastic animation on literacy shed! As there are no words, it was interesting reading year three's narratives about the video! I loved the creativity and imagination used in their narratives! @LiteracyShed#ACUedu_p https://t.co/hp8z4CouER

In class today we explored some effective strategies to undertake formative assessment during lessons. One I found effective on prac was using paddlepop sticks with the childrenβs names as a randomiser! Find more attached in the link #acuedu_p

I loved reading Big Blue Whale by Nicola Davies with year three! It's such a visually engaging and descriptive book for students to learn interesting facts about blue whales! #ACUedu_p
I loved using The Literacy Shed whilst on prac! There are so many engaging visual resources that support literacy teaching within the classroom @LiteracyShed#ACUedu_p
Teacher clarity is all about "Finding the why." Find out how it allows for a "clear, shared understanding of the ultimate learning goal behind each lesson." https://t.co/SgbbUqkBKn
