What did I learn that increased my understanding of Manaiakalani kaupapa and pedagogy?

Create, Create, Create - Provide students with the space and opportunity to create. Hands on, exploring original ideas. Take the time to create!

What did I learn that could improve my confidence, capability or workflow as a personally and within my classroom?

Youtube

Creating our own YouTube channel and adding playlists to our channel. This will be great for things like read aloud stories, mindfulness music, maths playlists ect. This will be super easy whenever needing to find relevant videos that I want to share with my children. I will spend some time on creating these playlists over the next week and practise using them in the classroom. I have also shared this playlist with my team so we can all add videos to the same playlist.

 

Google drawing

Great platform for creation, it might be information for parents, other teachers and students and can be made to look very professional. This will be great personally for making notices ect, this would be tricky to use in my classroom setting as we only have 10 iPads for 54 children. But if this changes it would be great to see what they would create.

Google Slides 

Developed my own personal Pepeha. This was awesome and great to have the time and support to play around with it. Adding a Mote voice note was fabulous and a great tool to be use.
