2014

So it is Term 3 already and I am just getting my self into gear and writing on my PLD for 2014!

A lot has changed since the beginning of the year.

To start the year off I was part of a forward thinking, collaborative team of 3 teachers working in an open class environment with 70 Year 5 & 6 students.  We worked well together as a team, collaborating, brainstorming and 'pinging' ideas off each other.

Enter CHANGE!

Around 4 weeks towards that end of Term 2 I was approached to take on a new role, in a different area of the school.  This was a huge opportunity for me to take on a leadership role, in a MLE.

Two weeks before the end of Term 2 I make the shift!  I used these two weeks to notice what was working well and what we could do better.

This has become my PLD focus for the rest of 2014, leading change.

Starting Term 3 we have made some huge changes to the way the Whenua team 'rolls'.  Will add more detail to my PLD 2014 page.
