connecting with learners

At the end of Term 3 I asked the class what they were interested in learning about . A majority of the answers were science and experiments. This term we had a science focus which I then linked with writing procedures. From the very beginning all of the students were engaged and involved in their learning they were inquiring, asking questions, problem solving and working collaboratively. Because the students were interested and passionate about their learning the level of learning was higher. The learning provided opportunities for students who may sometimes not have the confidence to lead the take on more responsibility in their learning it also provided opportunities for extension of the students to excel in this area. We have had some awesome learning happening this term. We were able to share this learning at our assembly .
