Instructional Leadership Team

Reflection and Closure Activities 

Hello wonderful educators

The ILT hope that you have been able to use some of the reflection and closure activities that were demonstrated during the school development day. There have been some great hallway conversations about how teachers have been using them in their classes. If you would like to try out any others that are on the Shared Instructional Framework or would like to find ways to adapt them to your classroom, please find Cathy for a chat and a brainstorm over coffee. Remember...

Reflection
Students reflect by summarising the content and assessing the level to which THEY have ACHIEVED the learning objective.

Closure
An ORGANISED conclusion to a learning sequence that serves to CONSOLIDATE what was taught and practised.

Ellie is working hard creating PDF documents of the strategies demonstrated on the SDD so that staff can have a copy for their classrooms or offices. If you would like a copy before we release them, please email Xan, Travis, Asharie, Nicki or Cathy and we will forward them to you.

Last week I sent out a feedback form for the SDD reflection and closure session. Thank you to the staff that have already submitted it. To those that haven't - please, please, please fill it out. Your responses will help guide the direction of the ILT and the professional development we will provide you.

Have a fantastic week.
