Inquiry focus - What does success look like?

Today our inquiry group met with Dorothy to refine our thinking around our inquiry focus. We talked about what success might look like regarding our inquiry focus. Then we went about creating a rubric for our inquiry focus.

Teacher Only Day

To start with, all teachers were given the chance to split up into a few groups and share our inquiry learning. There were about 10 of us in our group. It was really interesting to listen to each presentation and learn more about where people were up to in their inquiry journey. Then we went to the staffroom where a few teachers were selected to share their inquiry with the whole staff.

This was my presentation. Basically I have a better understanding of SOLO and how it can be integrated into a classroom programme. PD around SOLO has been helpful, but there are also sites online e.g. http://pamhook.com/ which were really useful. The next step for me is to be more specific with my planning and integrate SOLO based activities more purposefully into the classroom programme.
