Supporting Diverse Learners (RTLB Feedback and Support) April 2022

The Situation This year, our team has a group of diverse learners who we are working collaboratively to support.  We have access to Resource Teachers: Learning & Behaviour (RTLBs) assistance for this. Two RTLBs observed our lessons during term 1, and we also undertook student surveys with 16 students (half considered diverse, half not diverse). Their feedback is as follows. We are exploring how we might use a more UDL style of approach to support these, and indeed all of our students.

Te Reo Term 2

Over the last fortnight, I have looked at how I can increase Te Reo in my practise.  I have done this by: * Making more use of Te Reo for instructions e.g. "Kia tere!";  "Homai te...(pene etc)"; "E noho."  * Using Te Reo more for greetings with students' whaanau and students themselves * Ensuring there are more Te Reo books in our class library shelf * Observing and utilising Sherilee's (weekly Te Reo teacher) examples, and checking my pronunciation with her  * Including more waiata in class e.g. Matariki waiata, Ka Kite waiata * Allowing for more output  opportunities e.g. practising our greeting during roll call * Ensuring we say the karakia every day I found information on providing students with ooportunities for input  and output informed my practice: http://hereoora.tki.org.nz/Teachers-notes/Teaching-te-reo-Maori-effectively and great resources for Te Reo Week 2-10 July here:  http://www.tetaurawhiri.govt.nz/what-we-do/events-a...
