"Poipoia te kakano kia puawai"
Nurture the seed and it will blossom.
Kia ora whanau - it's week 3! We're celebrating our Maori Language week & looking at different forms of Media we can use.
What did I learn that increased my understanding of Manaiakalani kaupapa and pedagogy?
What defines create? ‘Creativity focuses on the process of forming original ideas through exploration and discovery. With children, creativity develops from their experiences with the process rather than concern for the finished product. ‘Create’ - is the hook in your lesson plan/practice. Begin with ‘create’ & then let the learning emerge. The learning is richer now with chrome books using online.
For students who are disengaged - Start with the ‘hook/create’, what will they be designing. Our students should be creators of content, instead of consumers. Learn-create-share is a linear process. Will look at ‘create’ to be a spiral inquiry.
Using youtube, I can create a channel, to begin a playlist. Instead of asking students to research on youtube, I am able to direct students to the youtube video that they need to view.
Google draw - able to create pages with pictures, even mind mapping or comic strips. Multiple purposes of using google draw for our students to create. Being able to set the canvas size, crop pictures, change the picture format including using word art.
What did I learn that could be used with my learners?
Google slides - creating animations slides. From our inquiry this term, I was able to design an animation slide about the rocky shore featuring the starfish. Being creative, not just using the standard themes including sound to accompany the slide. By planning, plan and plan this will help our presentation be more effective. The last slide is my pepeha, rather than speaking, but showing visuals to support my pepeha. Feel free to leave a positive comment
Kia ora Migi, so much learning! It is wonderful to read everything you are learning about at the DFI and then starting to use with your students. They must be loving every minute in class these days:)
