Know your Learners as Readers RPI 2

What did I learn that increased my understanding of the kaupapa and pedagogy of the Manaiakalani Reading Programme ? 
Knowing your learners as readers involves gathering information, assessment, data, planning and all on workbook (spreadsheet). Workbook (spreadsheet) that records data and information all on one document seems to be favoured in this part of the programme. Something that I am not confident with. 


What did I learn that could improve my capability and confidence in teaching reading? 
Understand other tools of assessment. Learn and be more firmiliar with the workbook spreadsheet example. Having all the data and information on one document where accessible, also input next steps in the doc. Daily planning is also in the one doc. Many slides, that I needed to understand more. Areas of learning as also identified from the PAT tool, which I was not firmiliar with. 


 What did I learn that could be used with my learners? 
I like the task board. The types of questions to dig deeper into the reading. The examples from PAT of other staff seem to have a lot of important information needed to follow through with planning and next steps. 

 What did I learn that could be shared within my wider community, with either colleagues, or whānau/aiga? 
There are other tools of assessments for reading that could provide more data and information.

  1. Kia ora Lucy,

    I am glad that your day was filled with new learning. I agree that the taskboards really help to push tamariki into deeper learning without becoming overwhelming for them. I look forward to seeing what you design for your group of learners.

    I am relieved that the PAT segment was interesting for you, considering there isn't a Te Reo Māori version of this test (Why not? It seems so strange that there isn't one). I would hope that you are able to use the assessment tools you do have in a way that helps you as kaiako to support your tamariki in their ako.

    I look forward to hearing about the things you've been able to embed in your practice.
    Keep up the great learning and blogging,
